Part 1 of the Mindfulness Series

Description: Mindfulness is the practice of being present to one’s experience with loving attention, which studies have shown helps reduce stress and promotes wellbeing. This class invites students to get out of their heads and into their bodies. When we learn to be present with and listen to our body we are not going to push ourselves in unhealthy ways and make ourselves sick. This class offers teachings on mindfulness of the body and the wisdom our body holds for our physical, mental and emotional well‐being.
