Mindfulness meditation offers the opportunity to remember who we truly are. Amidst the demands of daily life, a single mindful breath can be a portal to freedom and awakening. A sustained and disciplined meditation practice offers the opportunity to make regular visits to ourselves, training the mind and awakening the heart. Through exploration of breath, body, emotions, and thoughts, this four week course will provide a systematic introduction to the mindfulness meditation, focusing on somatic or embodied awareness. Throughout the course, you will have the opportunity to explore different meditation practices and begin to build the wisdom and skills necessary to support a consistent home practice. Each session will include movement, short talks and inquiries, meditation practices, and group discussions.
