BUILD MENTAL RESILIENCE WITH
MINDFULNESS 1.0
This FREE straight forward, action-based course will walk you through a no-BS approach to mindfulness that will build your mental strength through simple, tried-and-true exercises.
WHAT IS MINDFULNESS?
For thousands of years, human beings have practiced varied forms and techniques of mental focusing, designed to change and re-wire the natural and habitual conditions of the mind. Central to many spiritual and philosophical traditions, and now more known in english as "mindfulness," these practices are considered a major means for enhanced awareness and self-mastery.
Mindfulness is the ability to be present in the moment – free of distractions and judgements, aware of our thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, and surroundings without being caught up in it. Being present means being in a mindful state.
When you bring mindfulness to everyday situations and conversations, you can shift away from your old reactions and learn to use those 'triggering' moments to deepen your self-awareness, presence and compassion for yourself and others.
It is a simple practice that anyone can learn! It is easily accessible, free, and requires no special equipment or membership.
HOW IT WORKS.
This 7-week introduction course to mindfulness is designed for beginners. It will take you on a simple, yet dynamic, exploration of your own mind, giving you simple and usable lessons to understand the essence of mindfulness and how to practice it.
Every week you’ll receive an email that will introduce you to some basic mindfulness lessons and practices to try, with the aim of building a daily mindfulness practice by the end of the seven weeks.
YOU'LL LEARN HOW TO:
- Use simple, quick, accessible tools to ground yourself, especially on stressful days
- Be more present at home and at work (and stop feeling like you need to check your phone every two minutes)
- Notice your early warning signs of stress or anxiety so things don’t spiral out of control
- Develop more effective coping strategies for when life throws an inevitable curveball
- Meditate! Even if you think you can't or you're not one of 'those' people
