Calm Body, Calm Mind: Introduction to Mindfulness Practice

(Read Houston Chronicle’s Kyrie O’Connor November 2015 interview with Vicki: Mindfulness: Calm in the Holiday Storm.)

Let’s face it — we live in an age of endless and relentless distractions.

Most of us are overwhelmed by a deluge of incoming data, choices, and information. The simple practice of mindfulness offers the opportunity to experience deeper levels of concentration, focus, and a greater sense of well-being.

Mindfulness is the practice of attending to the present moment, being aware of what is happening in the body, mind and in the environment around us.

Over the past 30 years, the practice of meditation and mindfulness has emerged from obscurity into mainstream culture.

Mindfulness programs and classes can be found almost everywhere — in schools, hospitals, prisons, corporations, and a host of other settings.

Benefits of mindfulness training include:

Increased focus, concentration, and awareness
Reduction of obsessive/compulsive thoughts
Greater acceptance of self and the challenges of everyday life
Relief from stress-related physical symptoms

This introduction to mindfulness practice is for anyone wanting to learn beginning skills and techniques for developing a sense of calm and ease in stressful situations. No prior experience with mindfulness training or meditation is required.

What you will learn:

How to minimize distractions for greater focus and productivity
A variety of everyday mindfulness practices, including mindful eating
Specific tools to manage anxiety
Fundamentals of meditation practice
