Mindfulness in Everyday Life Course – 3 weeks – Shrewsbury
We all go through life not really noticing what we are doing, how we are breathing, what we are eating and oblivious to our immediate surroundings. In this short course, we will explore mindfulness, what it means, how we can achieve it and how it will help us in our daily lives. Sometimes we have to stop and appreciate what is happening now, this minute. What does it mean to be mindful? Essentially, mindfulness means to be present, and in the moment. It is important that we remind ourselves of this simple fact. All too often we can lose the true essence of mindfulness by over-complicating things or putting all our emphasis on the act of meditation alone. Mindfulness is not something we leave at the chair, but something we can carry through our everyday lives. If we can apply mindfulness on the chair, then why not while brushing our teeth, catching up with an old friend, or even waiting for our morning train? All these moments present an opportunity for us to apply mindfulness, and live our lives more fully, in the present moment.
