Mindfulness
“Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and nonjudgmentally.”
Jon Kabat-Zinn
Mindfulness Meditation is applicable to many individuals. The core aims of mindful meditation include:
- Greater awareness of thoughts, body sensations, and emotions
- Changing reactions to these thoughts, sensations, and feelings where they are more rooted in acceptance and flexibility
- Greater capacity to make effective choices in responding to these internal events
Classes meet once a week for eight weeks. Class themes include prevention of negative thought patterns, gaining awareness of habitual thinking styles, mindful awareness, and empowerment.
