SUMMARY:Deeper Mindfulness: Exploring feeling tone frame by frame (8-week course)
DESCRIPTION:Deeper Mindfulness: Exploring Feeling Tone Frame-by-Frame is an 8-week course developed by Professor Mark Williams and colleagues\, designed for you if you’ve already completed a mindfulness-based programme and you’d like to explore mindfulness more deeply. \nIt’s informed by recent psychological findings that reveal that every waking moment\, our understanding of the world is dominated by imagining how we can take action within it\, coloured by what is called ‘feeling tone’ – the moment-by-moment ‘read-out’ of whether a sensation\, thought or emotion feels pleasant\, unpleasant\, or neither. Based on this moment-by-moment ‘read out’\, the body allocates its resources as it gears up for real or imagined action. This can prepare us well for action\, but it can also put us at risk of becoming exhausted without our realising it. \nAncient traditions saw feeling tone (vedana) as a fundamental element of every moment of experience and a central aspect of mindfulness practice. Learning specific practices to help us become aware of feeling tone allows us to see clearly the very instant where we become caught up in pursuing or rejecting something and become entangled in a web of emotional distress. Meditation teacher Joseph Goldstein has said that mindfulness of feeling tone is one of the master keys that both reveals and unlocks the deepest patterns of our conditioning. \nDuring the 8 weekly sessions\, you’ll learn meditations that prepare you for\, then help you tune into\, feeling tone – frame-by-frame. This provides you with an opportunity to see more clearly both the tipping points for distress and exhaustion\, and also how to flourish by freeing yourself to appreciate life again\, even in the midst of difficulty.

DESCRIPTION:The session is 3 hours and includes guided sitting\, standing and movement practices of up to 30 minutes in length\, and some extended periods of silence. \nTypically\, each Day of Practice has a theme based on one of the attitudes we explore as part of both mindfulness practice and everyday experience.

SUMMARY:Finding Peace in a Frantic World (8-week course)
DESCRIPTION:This mindfulness course is based on the best-selling book “Finding Peace in a Frantic World” by Professor Mark Williams and Dr. Danny Penman. \nIf you’re completely new to mindfulness – or perhaps you’ve tried mindfulness apps or other forms of learning – and would like to try a structured course led by an experienced teacher\, this course offers an engaging and practical introduction. \nThe 8 sessions (each 90 minutes) and home practice are slightly shorter than our 8-week Mindfulness for Life course so this course could be an option for you if you’re shorter on time\, or you’re looking for a slightly less intensive refresher course. \nThe course grew out of Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)\, but has been designed for adults in a wide range of contexts\, including the general public\, workplaces\, university students\, and school teachers. \nIt supports your development of mindfulness skills to improve your well-being and resilience to stress.

SUMMARY:Introducing Mindfulness (3-week course)
DESCRIPTION:If you’re new to mindfulness\, or you’d like to come back to it after some time out\, our 3-week Introducing Mindfulness course gives you a brief taste of mindfulness practice and theory. \nDelivered weekly\, in this course you’ll explore three core mindfulness themes\, each designed to support you in your daily life: \n– How to train your attention and how this can fundamentally shape your experiences.\n– Learning new ways of being and how this can help support you in any moment\n– Recognising the difference between responding and reacting and exploring how this understanding can shape the quality of your life \nThe group sessions are led by an experienced Oxford Mindfulness teacher and combine learning\, experiential mindfulness practices\, trying out what’s learned in your daily life\, and group discussions. \nThis is a structured course\, with the theme of each session building on the learning and experience from the previous week.

SUMMARY:Taking it Further (12-week course)
DESCRIPTION:Especially created for those who have completed an 8-week Mindfulness for Life or MBCT course\, this 12-theme course isstructured to support a lifelong learning journey. Participants begin by reviewing what it means to wake up\, and to intentionally give attention\, energy and time to what brings them joy\, meaning and purpose. Over time\, they develop confidence to meet difficulty with kindness\, savour joy with appreciation\, align their choices with their deepest values\, and act with courage and authenticity. These three keys of mindfulness (awareness\, befriending and intention) extend to include a fourth – action. Together they are ways of being that can support people to live the life they aspire to. \nThis course mirrors the monthly podcast sessions on ‘A life well lived’ delivered by Professor Willem Kuyken\, exploring each theme in greater depth and including practice and group exercises. The twelve themes cover: \n– Wake up!\n– Pay attention!\n– Appreciating the life we have\n– Coming home to our body\n– Our most important natural resource: our ‘Body-Mind’\n– How we react to stress and difficulties\n– Befriending our body and mind\n– Perspective: changing the view\n– Responding wisely\n– Cool head\, warm heart: finding balance\n– Living well: taking care of ourselves\, our relationships and the world\n– A life well lived
