Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this health class:

Sit in the center of your life with the confidence that you can handle whatever comes up. Learning mindfulness, the practice of paying attention in the present moment without resistance or judgment can shift the course of our lives. 

Instead of being pushed around by our fears and hopes, we have the space to listen to ourselves and others, to pause, catch our breath, and respond to events wisely, rather than react automatically.

A separate paid course will cover the following topics

We will discover key techniques of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction:
  • The body scan, which takes us on our own fantastic inner voyage to attune to our body’s ability to be our compass and guide us in the world.
  • Sitting meditation, which lays bare the impact of our thoughts and feelings and helps us break unproductive unconscious habits.
  • Mindful yoga, designed to help us inhabit our bodies and move spontaneously.
We will also experiment with mindfulness while eating, walking, and communicating, and be asked to commit to practicing mindfulness while engaged in everyday activities. Come discover how living in the moment, with awareness and curiosity, can open up your life and fill it with peace and wonder.
