In Jon Kabat-Zinn's words, mindfulness is awareness that arises through paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment, non-judgementally. I want to invite you to this free workshop so you can explore mindfulness and have an experience of how this practice might support your life.
From a very young age, our brains are like sponges picking up on messages all around us that start to dictate how we perceive the world we live in. Some of the beliefs might support us while others simply sabotage us. The most challenging aspect about this is developing the awareness and discernment regarding the habits that are serving us and those that are not. That is the first step towards cultivating new behaviors.
Another tricky piece is that so much of how we show up is dictated by our subconscious thoughts. We carry around so much baggage that we aren’t even familiar with! Worse yet, some of it doesn’t even belong to us. An exciting new field in science right now is epigenetics, which is helping us understand how ancestral trauma can be manifested in our lives. That means that you could be living out certain patterns that not only date back to your parents, but possibly your grandparents and beyond! So we want to have the tools that help us clear these blocks that might be diminishing our full potential in the present moment.
I believe that many of us experience stress and suffering because we have forgotten how to ground ourselves and tap into who we truly are at the core.
