This online Class exposes participants to basic mindful awareness/meditation practices and allow for a first-hand experience with them. These basic self-care techniques can teach practitioners to reduce stress, regulate attention and emotions, reduce reactivity, and cultivate healthier relationships. It provides an overview of principles needed to establish mindfulness practice at home and in daily life and problem-solve difficulties in maintaining regular practice. Once participants learn the principles of mindfulness, we help them find ways to incorporate the techniques and practices into their life. This helps create a greater sense of well-being. There is also a review of current science that supports this practice. This class is suitable for all religions. The class meets weekly for 2 hours for 6 weeks.
