When we are mindful we are paying regular, calm attention to the present moment. This taster workshop (back by demand) will help you to understand more about Mindfulness based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and give an opportunity to practice a number of different mindfulness meditations, using a focus on paintings to help with this process.
“More energy and enthusiasm. A greater capacity for relaxation and calmness. Enhanced self-confidence. Increased ability to handle stressful situations. More focus. More self-awareness. Greater sensitivity to others.”
