Awakening to Mindfulness is based on the principles of Insight, or Mindfulness, meditation. Participants will learn the foundations of mindfulness, develop a meditation practice, and apply the many benefits of mindfulness to daily life. We will cover ways to work skillfully with thoughts, emotions, and sensations; and deepen our awareness of the ever-changing nature of present-moment experience. This series is designed for beginners but also suitable for those with experience who want to refine their practice. Classes include instruction, guided meditation practice, and discussion.
