What is Mindfulness?
Mindfulness is the practice of being fully present and aware of what we’re doing, while we are doing it. It's simple but not easy ! Over the eight weeks of the Mindful Based Living Course course we will begin to notice our habitual over-thinking, busy minds, and learn to use simple meditation and movement practices to help us to begin to understand how our mind works. We will learn how we can help it settle the mind and rest. And we do all this with gentleness, kindness and acceptance, because we know it's hard living with these human minds. Before you decide to do the whole course, please come along to the free introductory session on Monday 9th Oct at 7pm. To book a place contact: jacqui@finnsplace.org |
