Mindfulness
|
Due to changes in Tim's job, he will be moving on from W Yorkshire in the summer. As the group is positive and has had a significant and positive impact on mental health, the Monday night group will be taking over the reins. The sessions will continue on Monday evenings as usuaul.
Meetings will continue to the end of July with a break in August before beginning again in September. It's a good place to be whether we are in need of some mindfulness or just want to practice together or meet like-minded people. We start at 7.30pm and will finish by 9pm (but probably before then!) We tap into a variety of mindfulness traditions from people like Tara Brach, Jon Kabbatt Zinn and Bangor university. The practice of pausing, for example, comes from Mark Williams' and Danny Penman's book, Deeper Mindfulness. Here is the link to all the practices - Many thanks to Mark and Danny for being so generous with their work. We are a friendly group and you are welcome to come along or if you want to join via Zoom, contact me for the link. Here is the gentle mantra Ian led us in one week - very well-received by us all:
We run regular half days of mindfulness which are well-attended. Please use the contact page to get in touch to find out when the next half day will be. Here is the book we base our courses on: Finding Peace in a Frantic World by Mark Williams and Danny Penman. It really is a very good book giving you all the information you need. We find that people thoroughly enjoy the courses because it gives them a framework and discipline to practice what keeps them on an even keel. Get in touch if you want to come on the course or want to know more. |
