Stress and symptoms of stress can be reduced through regular meditation by training us to respond to stressful situations and stressful thoughts differently. In addition, meditation also has the side-effect of calming us, and giving us a time and space for ourselves, away from our busy lives, even if just for a moment or two. The students in the class will be taught how to recognize stressful thoughts for what they are: just thoughts. It’s not stressful thoughts that cause us grief and turn our stomachs, it’s our reaction and judgement to these thoughts. I will demonstrate through mindfulness meditation ,you can to catch the thought before you impulsively act on it. Students will be taught various meditation techniques and breathing exercises. They will learn tools the can carry with them for a life time. No prior meditation experience necessary.
