Introduction to Mindfulness Meditation and the wisdom of the ‘Body Scan’

Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy and Stress Reduction are well researched programmes that have proved helpful for people with a wide variety of health problems, including chronic pain, stress and anxiety.

I love being more mindful. Instead of waiting for the flowers to come out, I go out in the garden and see what is happening now. I am happier. Things still get difficult at times and when they do, I do my practice (course participant) 

· This is a one-off session to introduce you to mindfulness, in particular the body scan. 

· It may be particularly helpful to those that have a health-related problem.

· I am running this event as part of my final year of a course at Bangor University in teaching Mindfulness Based Interventions with particular emphasis on health.

· This session will last for approximately an hour followed by afternoon tea in the café.
