Clinical studies have shown that mindfulness can decrease anxiety, stress and worry. This 6–week course, which is based on the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction curriculum supports our natural ability to connect with the present moment. Learn how cultivating the practice of mindfulness can lead to a more joyful and meaningful life.
The course includes instruction on the following mindfulness practices: body scan, sitting meditation, walking meditation, and mindful movement – including yoga and Qigong. Guided meditation recordings will be offered to support home practice. A half day silent retreat is also included.
During the series, the following topics will be covered:
Awareness of our mental habits that can cause emotional reactivity and anxiety
Mindful eating and our relationship with food
The role of perception, physiology of stress
Reacting vs. responding with mindfulness
Interpersonal communication skills
Obstacles to feeling more joy in our lives
How being in nature can decrease symptoms of stress
Developing warmth and compassion towards ourself and others
The importance of self–care
Plan to attend the orientation session which will be held on Jan. 11 from 1–2p.m., at no charge.
Since this is a bigger time and financial commitment it’s important for everyone to know what is involved and what is expected, so include this class in your plans. If unable to attend, please let the Gardens staff know and the teacher will contact you directly.
