The practice of mindfulness is geared toward developing awareness in the present moment with intention, attention, curiosity, acceptance and kindness. This course focuses on developing mindfulness skills. Classes will consist of a combination of quiet sitting meditations with focus on the breath and body, body scans, positional yoga, and mindful movement/activities such as walking and will conclude with individual written reflections in a mindfulness journal to track progress and development. At the end of the course, students will be able to incorporate their own mindfulness practice into their daily lives.
