9.30 - 11 am
Studio Laterale, Lugano
In this course we will explore:
What is Mindfulness
The origins of Mindfulness date back to approximately 2500 years ago with the first teachings of the Buddha and today is one of the most widely practiced forms of meditation. At its core, Mindfulness is the art of being fully alive and present. Through this type of meditation, you will learn to intimately know yourself and live in a deeper and more conscious way.
Why practice
The benefits of Mindfulness have been the subject of countless clinical studies and include increased mental clarity and focus, stress reduction, pain relief, decrease in anxiety and depression levels, etc. This practice is also used to develop creativity and allows us to access our innate wisdom, intuition, and a broader understanding of reality.
How to practice / how to deepen your practice
We will explore the fundamental principles of establishing a personal mindfulness practice and engage in a variety of techniques to train the mind and open the heart, deepening our experience. Finally, during our last session, we will get more into the heart space incorporating the practice of loving-kindness meditation (Metta) into our exploration.
This course is open to everyone, from absolute beginners to experienced "meditators." Each session will last 90 minutes and will include simple instructions, time for guided and self-directed practice, journaling, group sharing (for those who desire), and Q&A sessions.
What to bring? Comfortable clothing, a journal or notebook.

So the path has to be your own. You cannot imitate somebody else's journey and still be true to yourself. Are you prepared to honor your uniqueness in this way?”
