Mindfulness Introductory Course

Learn to use Mindfulness and Meditation in daily life through our Mindfulness Introductory Course- Six Weeks Online Course.

You can book a single 90 minutes session to get familiar with the practice. However, we would recommend choosing 6 sessions online course to help you get in the flow of practicing Mindfulness daily.

Mindfulness Introductory Course

Have you ever thought about what is the biggest tragedy of life? Perhaps the biggest tragedy is that our freedom and independence is possible yet we live our life and pass our years trapped in the same old patterns and beliefs. We become so familiar with keeping ourselves in a cage that it makes us incapable of accessing freedom, peace and happiness.

To move out of this familiar cage set-up that gives us comfort on some levels, we must start by embracing our moment-to-moment experiences. It is a step-by-step process in which we uncover the layers. As we uncover, we move beyond our walls of protection that we have built based on self-judgement, anxiety, dissatisfaction, anger, and/or hatred.

Learn how to be mindful, be present in the moment and gain a greater sense of peace, and clarity by re-writing the story of your life.

When you book 6 sessions package( 90 minutes per session), we recommend having a session once a week over six weeks period to start with. This will give you plenty of time to practice mindfulness in your daily life. In addition to this, It will give you an opportunity to discuss with your facilitator anything that bothers you during your daily practice.
