Explore mindfulness meditation during your work day
Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention to your present moment experiences with openness, curiosity and a willingness to be with what is - weather it is pleasant or unpleasant. It can assist us with the stress we encounter throughout our days, inviting us to stop, breathe, observe, and connect with our inner experience. There are many ways to bring in mindfulness into one's life, such as meditation, yoga, and time in nature. We can practice mindfulness in a systematic way through meditation and it can be implemented in our daily life activities.
Research has shown that mindfulness can increase attention and focus, including for those living with ADHD. It can help us be with difficult mental states such as anxiety and depression with greater ease, fostering well-being and less emotional reactivity. There has also been evidence that it thickens the brain in areas in charge of decision making, emotional flexibility, and empathy.
Sessions include guided mindfulness meditation and exploration of how mindfulness can be of benefit to us during our daily lives.
