Introducing Self-Care Sundays:

Mindfulness Skills Training Group

This 5 session 90-minute Group meets Sundays at 11:30 AM starting on October 25th.

The difficulties and stress we have been experiencing this past year have taken a toll on us all. This year is one for the record books! Many of us were already struggling with feelings of dissatisfaction and ineffectiveness, decreased attention, as well as emotional overwhelm and worries, even BEFORE the onset of COVID. 

AND even with the heightening of these experiences, WE CAN STILL LEARN POWERFUL COPING TOOLS.

REGISTRATION DEADLINE: Sunday, October 18th

A regular practice of mindfulness skills:

• Can allow you to feel more present to your own experience so that you can fully embrace life as it unfolds before you
• Can improve your ability to focus your attention so that you can disentangle yourself from distracting thoughts, feelings, and sensations
• Can clear the path to your internal wisdom so that you can make effective life choices – even tough ones, with a sense of groundedness and clarity
• Can help you to turn towards life’s challenges and emotional hardships with courage and self-compassion so that you can live your life fully without avoidance and without suppression
• Will help you to deepen your appreciation for the universal connectedness that binds us all together so that you can see and feel that none of us are really ever alone in this journey through life
