Course Description
Sunday, August 30, 10 am to 5 pm

Mindfulness has been described as a process of bringing a certain
quality of attention to moment-by-moment experience. The practice of
mindfulness is a technique to help people cope with stress, anxiety,
pain, change and illness. It is best described as non-judgmental
awareness leading to a deep sense of inner peace and calm. Mindfulness
can enable you to see things differently by undoing mental and physical
knots, tensions and anxiety. Participants in this interactive 6 hour
continuing education class will examine and experience mindfulness
while developing calm and concentration through non-judgmental
awareness. Classes include instruction in various mindfulness
techniques as well as discussions focused on approaching the
therapeutic relationship with compassion. Mindfulness can bring into
