With the ever-changing nature of our current world, our minds constantly buzz with endless tasks, worries, and responsibilities. How do we cope?
With the ever-changing nature of our current world, our minds constantly buzz with endless tasks, worries, and responsibilities. With these demands on our time and attention, we can find ourselves feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and exhausted. We lose sight of what matters as our attention gets pulled in multiple directions. We have difficulty focusing on our goals.
We miss moments of ordinary joy and contentment that we so need to help us find calm and clarity to weather life’s ups and downs. In this session, we will explore mindfulness tools that cultivate present-moment awareness to support focusing our attention and following our intentions, allowing us to stay true to what really matters to us at all phases of life.
