Move toward greater balance, control and participation in your life
Mindfulness is a way of learning to relate directly to whatever is happening in your life, a way of taking charge of your life, a way of doing something for yourself that no one else can do for you… to work consciously and systematically with your own stress, pain, illness, and the challenges and demands of everyday life.
This workshop can provide:
Lasting decrease in physical and psychological symptoms
An increased ability to relax
Reductions in pain levels and an enhanced ability to cope with pain that may not go away
Greater energy and enthusiasm for life and improved self-esteem
An ability to cope more effectively with both short and long-term situations
