Course Brief
This workshop or series of workshops creates an opportunity for you to engage with Mindfulness. Whether it is carrying routine day-to-day tasks, taking a break or discovering the power of the breath, the workshop is designed to illuminate the pragmatic nature of Mindfulness and how it can be applied to everyday life.
With mindfulness we can learn to transcend ordinary thinking and inhabit a way of being that allows us to experience our lives directly. Mindfulness is the ability to leave the past behind us, while also not projecting ourselves into a catastrophic future. Instead we learn to live in the present moment where our real lives are unfolding, where we can make skilful, life-enhancing choices.
This workshop would be of interest to people who have little or no experience of Mindfulness, either theoretical or applied.
