Mindfulness is our capacity to be fully present in our own lives, to be aware of what we are doing as we are doing it. As we develop our awareness, an inner stillness naturally grows. We are better able to embrace the world, better able to respond wisely and lovingly. If we are not mindful we are split, and we are disconnected from the life energy that is in us and in the world.

During this 90-minute workshop we will explore mindfulness as a daily practice and become familiar with conscious breathing, sitting meditation, and walking meditation.

This workshop is co-sponsored by Crossings, and will be taught by Mitchell Ratner.

Mitchell has been a lay member of the Tiep Hien Buddhist order since 1993, and in 2001 received the Dharmacharya (meditation teacher) transmission from Vietnamese Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. A founder of the Still Water Mindfulness Practice Center, since 1994 he has taught classes and workshops integrating mindfulness meditation with work, meaningful relationships, and the challenges of everyday life.

Have a friend or colleague who might be interested? We would be grateful if you downloaded a flyer to give to another person or post on a bulletin board.
