This workshop experience will draw from the program developed and popularized by Jon Kabat-Zinn at the UMass Medical Center. We will explore powerful approaches to developing mindfulness in our everyday lives including: The Body Scan, Mindful Hatha Yoga, Sitting, Walking and Eating Meditation. Not my usual Vipassana retreat focused primarly on sitting and walking meditation, this is a powerful yet gentle introduction to an integrated mindfulness practice that balances sitting with mindful movement, noble silence with mindful speech and active listening.
This workshop brings the experience of mindfulness within easy grasp of those who are curious about this practice but perhaps reluctant to sign up for a full day of 40 minute sittings and strict silence. It is also a good introduction to those who already have either an established yoga or meditation practice to experience how these practices can deeply compliment eachother.
