Five Ways to be Well with Mindfulness

This is a free six-week course to introduce you to mindfulness and meditation. In each session we will explore how mindfulness, meditation and mindful movement can enhance the Five Ways to Wellbeing’ - Take Notice, Connect, Be Active, Give, and Keep Learning. The final session - the Full Monty – will bring it all together. Every session will be practical: for example, when looking at Be Active, we shall be talking about the benefits of mindful walking and connecting to nature.

The course is practical, exploring and practicing formal mindfulness [meditation], informal mindfulness, and mindful movement. No prior experience of mindfulness or meditation is necessary, and we have two main points of guidance:

• The only compulsory activity is breathing
• If it hurts, don’t do it

We ask that you commit to attending all six of the sessions if possible, and that each day between sessions you do at least 10 minutes meditation, at least 10 minutes mindful movement, and practice informal mindfulness.

Course dates:
