Our pace of life is increasingly fast, aided by technology and the growing urban concentrations. This promotes reactive and automated, thoughtless behaviors. Processing information to understand what it means requires slowing down and creating spaces to observe, notice, and connect with our feelings. These non-thinking practices integrate our spiritual dimension and help us develop mindfulness, an ancestral goal to expand consciousness. 

​

Teaching Goal: Students experience several different contemplative practices, to get the opportunity to find what works best for them.

​

 

Meta Goal: Develop an appreciation of the power of contemplative practices and develop new habits of practice that increase mindfulness
