This is a new eight-week course of two hour weekly sessions is developed by Mark Williams and colleagues, designed for those who have already completed a mindfulness-based programme and want to explore mindfulness more deeply.
It is informed by recent psychological findings revealing that our understanding of the world is dominated by imagining how we can take action within it, coloured by what is called ‘feeling tone’; the sense of how pleasant or unpleasant each moment is for us. Greater awareness of the ‘feeling tone’ of each moment can support us in getting the most out of our experiences.
During the eight weekly sessions, you will learn meditations that prepare you for, then help you tune in to feeling tone, frame by frame. This provides an opportunity to see more clearly both the tipping points for distress and exhaustion, and also how to flourish by freeing yourself to appreciate life again, even in the midst of difficulty.
Group starts on Tuesday 7 February 2023, at 3.30pm to 5.30pm on MS Teams
