MINDFULNESS AFTER WORK – STARTING IN MAY
Come and learn how to ‘take the stress of the day out’ and enjoy a more present state of being.
In these four classes we will familiarise ourselves with the simple but powerful mindfulness techniques that are helping individuals of all walks of life getting a direct experience of the ‘mindful state’ and learning how to ‘be in the present moment’ more and more.
You will learn in a relaxed and enjoyable way how to focus your attention inwardly by sitting on a chair, using only your body and senses to fully connect with the present moment.
The classes will also help you to establish your own mindfulness practise so you can make it a reliable tool in your everyday life, readily at hands whenever you need it.
“As we all know there is no lack of challenges and opportunities for stress and anxiety in our busy daily lives”.
It has been proven that a mindfulness practice where you connect with the present moment even for just as little as 10 minutes a day can help to make a radical shift so that in situations where you used to be a ‘victim of the circumstances’, it is now possible to purposefully eliminate unnecessary stress and worry on the spot, just by using the ability to be present and that way disconnect from the thinking-patterns that used to keep you trapped.
Learning these simple techniques, depending on your determination, will lead to a calmer, happier state with increased self-confidence, improved memory, impulse control and better sleep in the night and mental clarity in the day.
