Mindfulness for Life: Tuesday evenings

February 6, 2024 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm GMT

£250

Tuesdays, 6 February to 26 March 2024, 17.30-19.30

The Mindfulness for Life programme has evolved from Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy. The programme was developed by the Oxford Mindfulness Foundation to offer mindfulness practices and cognitive-behavioural techniques to enable everybody to improve their wellbeing.

The programme guides participants in how to apply the learning in everyday life to manage what is painful and difficult and cultivate qualities such as compassion. It supports people to work with challenges, including recurring patterns of thought and behaviour that create suffering. It also supports our capacity to savour life and to flourish. Mindfulness for Life is an in-depth programme intended to cultivate lasting and sustainable change. You can find out more about the course here.

The format of the course?

– Eight weekly two-hour classes including mindfulness practices, discussion and exercises
– Daily meditation home practice of around 30 minutes
