Mindfulness for beginners - a short course
This course runs over three Monday evenings. It explores mindfulness and how it might be useful to the individual in helping manage life's stresses.
It is an introduction for those not sure if a longer eight-week course, such as the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course (MBSR), is what they want. It is also for anyone who has heard of mindfulness but is not sure of its various applications in the work place, schools, or for certain medical conditions. There is planned space to talk about using mindfulness in a larger context or other issues that arise.
There will be meditations and discussion as well as some formal teaching.
