Developed from traditional Buddhist mindfulness training techniques, this course teaches awareness of breath, posture and feelings to improve our physical and mental health and helps us to transform negative situations and our negative states of mind. The real value of Calm Abiding (mindfulness) Meditation is in its application to everyday life.
This course also offers a speech blessing practice to change undesirable habits in our internal dialogues and communication.
