What is this workshop about?
We live our daily lives on autopilot, lost in endless worries, avoiding our emotions and trapped in impulsive and reactive behaviors. This damages our happiness and well-being, as well as our relationships. Mindfulness allows us to break out of this unhealthy pattern and start living a more conscious and enriched life.
In this workshop, you'll learn how to put this present-focused attention into practice and why this awareness posture can have so much potential for your overall well-being. Topics related to acceptance and self-compassion will also be covered, as well as some practical tips for facilitating this new attitude in your life.
