In this 1.5 hour workshop participants will be introduced to mindfulness and have the opportunity to discover and develop mindful communication skills.
Through mindfulness practice, discussion and sharing we will strengthen self-awareness and our ability to respond rather than react, allowing us to stay connected to ourselves and others, even through stressful situations.
Studies have shown that mindfulness helps to improve stress resiliency, academic performance, emotional regulation and feelings of connectedness.
Benefits include:
- Increased ability to deal with stress
- Improved focus and memory retention
- Increased self-awareness; body, thoughts and feelings
- Increased feelings of kindness and connectedness with self and others
- Increased impulse-control and decision making
"Mindfulness is a way of befriending ourselves
and our experience." - Jon Kabat-Zinn
