Introduction to Mindfulness
Introduction to Mindfulness
This introduction session explores
- what is Mindfulness (and what its not!)
- the evidence based research of the benefits of Mindfulness
- the brain science of Mindfulness (the amazing ways it can change the structure of the brain, at any age!)
- how this brain change can help us react less, yell less, and become calmer with our children and their behaviour
- how Mindfulness can be applied for positive outcomes for everyone - as a parent, as an Educator (teaching children as well as ourselves), in the workplace
- how Mindfulness strategies can assist children or young adults in managing anxiety, stress and emotional outbursts.
This will be facilitated by Kate Foster, a qualified Family Counsellor, who has completed Accredited training in the application of evidence based Mindfulness strategies.
Kate also holds a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment.
This session will be held on Tuesday, 3rd of September at City Hive (184 Marine Terrace), from 6 - 7:30pm.
Please bring a pillow and blanket! Take home goodies provided :)
