Join us as we learn tools to bring mindfulness and compassion into our everyday lives, so we can develop more kindness, stability and ground during difficult times. Learn to stay present with emotions and experiences, while opening our hearts to offering ourselves and others the kindness and care we all deserve.

No experience is necessary, all levels are welcome.
Please arrive on time; wear comfortable clothes; have water, a blanket, pen & paper for notes, and a yoga mat (optional). A space that allows for privacy during the class is recommended.

Schedule: 

Week 1 – Learn how mindfulness and being in the present moment can support you when you are dealing with difficult emotions or events. We will practice formally and informally, to discover your own ways to support yourselves.

Week 2 – Identify ways in which you are clinging and pushing away pleasant and unpleasant emotions and experiences. We will work with locating emotions in the body and creating space for them to soften. 

Week 3 – Learn how compassion can support you and those around you during difficult times. We will work with difficult emotions and give ourselves permission to treat ourselves as we would a dear friend -  with loving, connected, presence. 

Week 4 – Learn ways in which you can give and receive compassion, as well as offer loving kindness to yourself and others.
