8 Week Mindfulness Based Living Course (MBLC)
Mindfulness frees us from the conditioning that governs and limits our lives. This results in the flourishing of our human potential to make choices about how we live in connection with ourselves and our world. We help people to transform their lives by training them in being present, responding with compassion and seeing deeply their habitual patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviours. We do this by providing a long-term systematic training in Mindfulness for living and see this transformation at the end of every course. This course will help you to build up inner peace, contentment, and love, so you will learn that a sense of wellness is not based on external conditions.
The Mindfulness Based Living Course (MBLC) is based on the work of international mindfulness teacher Rob Nairn. It is similar to other 8 week Mindfulness programs such as MBSR and MBCT, however the MBSR is focused in Stress Reduction and MBCT is specific for depression meanwhile the MBLC is open to all. Another key difference: whilst focused on developing mindfulness, the MBLC also introduces methods for nurturing self-compassion and compassion for others. Research has shown that self-compassion greatly enhances emotional wellbeing, it has the potential to boost happiness, reduces anxiety and depression. This course welcomes everybody: from total beginners to seasoned practisioners.

A day to practice mindfulness with like minded people. This mini retreat will be led by Kati Simpson (more info please click here). It is a day to connect or reconnect with our practice so it will be a silent mini retreat, silence is a wonderful way to gain insight into the habitual patterns of our minds. It is also a very unique opportunity to share other people's presence, to observe our judging mind, our likes and dislikes, our attitudes towards others and ourselves. We will be practicing sitting, walking, eating, body movement and body scan mindfulness practices through the day. We will have small breaks and lunch at 1 pm. Light lunch provided. Tea/coffee and biscuits will be served during breaks.
The Mini Retreat starts at 10 am sharp and finishes at 4 pm.
Cost: €50
