This session explores mindfulness practices that help reduce stress, enhance well-being, and focus the mind. After a brief introductory overview, we'll engage in interactive breath work, guided meditations, and gentle movement exercises. You'll gain first-hand experience of the benefits of mindfulness, and leave equipped to integrate a sense of spaciousness into what poet Mary Oliver called "your one precious life."
