Mindfulness for Everyday Living: Practical Meditation Techniques for Daily Life with Beryl Bender

Afternoon Session:

In our afternoon session, we will work with a mindfulness meditation practice that can easily fit into your daily routine. This practice continues the work of training the mind in focus and attention, that you may have started in your asana and pranayama practices. 

As you learn to spend more time in present moment awareness, this skill carries over into your everyday life and helps you to manage your response to stress and find greater joyfulness in everyday tasks. 

Slowly, the practice expands our awareness and brings us into deeper connection with the world around us.
