Mindfulness for Health & Wellbeing with Michael Eales
A gentle and nourishing weekend for anyone wanting to manage stress, build resilience and feel more centred in daily life.
Mindfulness can help us work more skilfully with stress, anxiety, emotional or physical pain, and the everyday pressures that pull us away from ourselves. This supportive weekend will introduce a range of simple mindfulness practices, including meditation, that you can take away and use in your own life.
Together, we’ll explore four key principles of mindfulness:
- Present Moment Awareness
Learning to notice and observe our thoughts, feelings and physical sensations, so we can return more easily to our centre. - Non-judgemental Acceptance
Meeting ourselves with curiosity rather than self-criticism, and allowing space for learning and change. - Conscious Practice
Becoming more aware of our actions and habits, rather than moving through life on autopilot. - Mindfulness of Yourself in the World
Exploring our impact on others, the difference between the impact we intend and the impact that is felt, and the transformational possibilities of kindness and gratitude.
This course is open to everyone: beginners, those wishing to refresh their practice, and anyone simply seeking a relaxing weekend away with time to unwind the mind.
