By the end of this course, participants will be equipped to tools to:

- Calm the mind and body
- Increase focus and attention
- Let go of obsessive and intrusive thinking
- Work with troublesome emotions
- Begin to heal past wounds
- Increase self-compassion and compassion for others
- Foster joy and well-being in the present moment

The curriculum includes current neuroscience research, secular mindfulness practices, as well as the Buddhist philosophy from which Western mindfulness arose.  The program is designed to create a supportive community in which to learn and grow. A group setting provides accountability and structure to encourage daily practice, as mindfulness practice requires regular repetition to yield benefit. Participants will be asked to commit to at least 30 minutes per day of mindfulness practice.

Half-Day Mindfulness Retreat for Depression and Anxiety

Looking for new ways to work with your depression and anxiety? Through immersion in 4.5 hours of mindfulness and yoga, presented with our 20 years of combined clinical knowledge, we hope to introduce you to a new way of being and healing.

This retreat will be held in “noble silence,” or without speech, a long-practiced way to contribute to mental calming and the ability to shine mindful light on what is occurring in the present. By allowing ourselves to be in silence, we deepen awareness, and connect with ourselves and others in a way that our busy lives rarely allow.

Instruction will focus on strengthening mindfulness of the experiences of body and mind, through sitting and walking meditation, and yoga. You will also gain tangible practices for how to work with troublesome thoughts and feelings when they arise. The small group atmosphere (no more than 6-8 participants) will allow for individualized attention and guidance.
