Mindfulness meditation is a technique of focus, calm and insight, and a skill that can be learned. Through this four-week mindfulness training course participants will observe how stress unfolds in their lives, their responses to it, and how mindfulness practice can ameliorate it. Participants will learn and practice a variety of mindfulness techniques on an entry level, including loving-kindness meditation and mindful movement. Alongside the meditation practice, classes incorporate group discussions.
