Coming Home: An Introduction to Mindfulness
With Jennifer Keane coming Fall 2021!We spend so much of our waking time on automatic pilot, “miles away”, “in another world”., not really present. This 4-week introduction to mindfulness is an invitation to come home to be more aware of our breath, body sensations, thoughts and emotions, to what is happening right now.

Coming Home is designed especially for those who want to learn about mindfulness and how to develop a practice through guided meditation in class, support in establishing a home practice (including a recording and handouts), and opportunities to discuss how we can apply these practices in our life, our relationships, our work
You will learn:
- What we mean by ‘mindfulness’
- How to learn and practice mindfulness
- The foundations of mindfulness- breath, body, emotions, and thinking
- The benefits of mindfulness
