Introduction to Mindfulness Course
A taste of Mindfulness
ā
I am the only provider in France of the 'Introducing Mindfulness' curriculum designed by Oxford University and based on their hugely succesful 8 week Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy course. This course is designed for anyone interested in exploring some key mindfulness themes and practices in ways that might support them personally, in everyday life and work.
ā
The course takes place over 3 sessions, each of which explores a core theme:
-
Understanding the mind’s natural tendency to be scattered and to wander; how we can train attention to create choices about where and how we place attention, and how this can fundamentally shape our experience
-
Exploring different ways of being and knowing; recognising how much of our experience is shaped by thought; that other more experiential and observing modes are also available to us, and how we can learn to use them to help us flourish over time
-
Recognising the difference between reacting and responding; developing ways to create the space to make choices between them, and exploring how this understanding can shape our experience and the quality of our lives
