Mindfulness Meditation
The practice of meditation is simply the practice of remembering, of returning to contact what is happening right now. In each moment, the future has not yet arrived and the past is already gone. Life occurs right on the “tip of this moment”. Mindfulness meditation is the practice of returning your attention to this present moment each time your mind wanders into thoughts of the past, or starts thinking about the future. It’s simply bringing your self back to this felt moment of life.
This practice has many benefits:
•Increases attention span, strengthens concentration and capacity to focus
•Rejuvenates the mind through direct access to inner calm
•Promotes emotional intelligence through enhanced self awareness
•Provides a potent tool for stress reduction, anger management, and impulse control
•Increases ability to manage conflict with ease
The style of meditation we teach is called Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, developed by MBA advisor Jon Kabat-Zinn.
