Dulwich Mindfulness. 8-Week Evening Meditation Course. Starts Tuesday 24th April 2018.

[Linda Fisher]

This 8-week, evidence-based course run by http://dulwichmindfulness.co.uk will help you to learn and integrate mindfulness in to your every day life. The focus will be on learning how to ground yourself in the present moment and connect with the stillness and calm that lie beneath the surface of your busy life. The mindfulness practices learned in this course will enable you to understand your reactivity, recognise and step back from negative thinking, relate more whole-heartedly to others and to approach the challenges of life with greater ease and self-compassion. The course is an ideal way to learn a range of mindfulness meditation practices, step-by-step in a supportive environment, or for those who want to reconnect with or refresh their practice.

The maximum number of people in the class will be 12.

Course dates and times

The course will be running in two sections.

Part 1:

You are encouraged, as far as possible, to attend all of the classes, as each builds on the one that precedes it and the course 'unfolds' gradually over the eight-week period. As an essential part of the learning process and in order to obtain the best from the course you will also be encouraged to meditate on a daily basis. This, however, is entirely up to you and there will be no pressure to do so.
