Bringing Ease to Heart & Mind
Our Mindfulness in Action Series explores how to apply mindfulness to the things you do every day—working and playing, cooking and eating, planning and parenting. Whether you are interested in self-care, relaxation, or finding deeper meaning, you can start with bringing awareness to the ordinary activities that make up your life.
In the first workshop of the series, Bringing Ease to Heart & Mind, we’ll discuss how to activate our capacity for caring and acting in the world. We’ll go on to explore the issue of burnout and how to develop the inner resources to engage with the work we care about in a sustainable way.
The full price is $24 for the workshop. Please pay full price if you have the means to do so. If you need a lower price, please apply one of the following discount codes on checkout according to your need:
