Description:
In this day of mindfulness meditation, we will cultivate awareness that supports clarity, understanding and insight. We will investigate how mindfulness practice develops insight into both the causes of stress and the causes of genuine happiness. We will develop tools to live with a genuine non-reactive freedom wherever we are, that leads to an inner peace we all seek.
Along with sitting and walking insight meditation practices, loving kindness and compassion will be integrated throughout the day. There will be periods of meditation, talks, questions and discussion. Suitable for experienced and newer students to meditation.
Teachings are appropriate for health care professionals as well as the general public. Health care professionals will be able to incorporate the tools and practices offered in this program in ways beneficial to clients or patients. Continuing Education (CE) credit available.
