Class Experience

As the neuroscientists say, "neurons that fire together, wire together", so we'll use repetitive, focused practice in an interactive, experiencial, environment to encourage lasting brain changes. Over 6 weeks, learners will explore and strengthen knowledge about the brain and body along with mastering skills to encourage mental resilience. With mindfulness, understanding of the concepts, and attention and nervous system regulation training, we will create new, less stressed mind habits that...

This class is taught in English.

This class is not intended to be therapy or medical treatment or a replacement for therapy or medical treatment. I do not diagnose or treat any specific medical or psychiatric conditions in this course, rather this course is a way for all to strengthen habits of resilience through positive thinking and skills for stress reduction learned through GoZen!, Mind Ninja, MBSR instructor training from UMASS, and Mindful Schools Educator Essentials Course.

We will practice different mindfulness techniques during each class that I ask learners to practice for a few minutes each day, to see what they like. I also ask learners to notice something new each week about the topic we were discussing and see how it shows up in their lives.

I will provide a short (few pages) workbook that can be printed out once the course begins.

50 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
