Event Overview
In this one-hour introductory workshop, we will explore what it means to live mindfully. Through guided meditation, discussion and teachings, participants will have a direct experience of mindfulness.  

Mindfulness is a way of learning to relate directly to whatever is happening in your life. It is a way of taking charge of your life, a way of doing something for yourself that no one else can do for you – consciously and systematically working with your own stress, pain, illness, and the challenges and demands of everyday life. Restoring within yourself a balanced sense of well-being requires increased awareness of all aspects of self, including body and mind, heart and soul. Mindfulness-based stress reduction is intended to ignite this inner capacity and infuse your life with awareness.

This workshop offers an introduction to the evidence-based practices and perspectives that we will dive more deeply into during the upcoming 6-week course.
