SUMMARY:The Future of Mindfulness in Hamilton: A community-wide co-creation session
DESCRIPTION:Join mindfulness leaders\, teachers\, and practitioners in a radical imagining of what mindfulness means for Hamilton \n\n\nRegister Here: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/the-future-of-mindfulness-in-hamilton-a-community-wide-co-creation-session-tickets-237566276127\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nWhen the COVID-19 pandemic hit\, Mindfulness Hamilton moved our programs on-line. As we recognize the challenges and opportunities of the present moment\, Mindfulness Hamilton’s Core Committee thought this was a good time to reflect on the needs of the community we serve and start to source new ideas for how and who we might serve better. \nRather than a strategic planning process\, we wish to engage our community in a bottom-up creative process to collectively explore opportunities in the current and future environments. \nWe are inviting all of our members\, and everyone who has been a committee member or volunteer to participate in one or both of our co-creation sessions\, along with anyone who has an interest in mindfulness education and support\, including mindfulness teachers and facilitators. \nThese interactive planning and design sessions will give participants a bird’s eye view of how Mindfulness Hamilton has been serving the community\, surface emerging needs and hopes from each participant about how we might go further\, and co-create sketches of future possibilities for the organization. \nPart 1: Sourcing New Ideas – Saturday Feb 26\, 2022 10-12 AM via Zoom \n\nSurface emerging\, unmet needs in our community and dream big about how we can meet those needs.\n\nPart 2: Ideas into Action – Saturday Mar 26\, 2022 10-12 AM via Zoom \n\nThe best ideas from Part 1 will be shared and turned into concrete plans\, experiments\, and actions to bring them to life.\n\nThe sessions will be interesting and fun. A number of different mindfulness and creativity exercises including breakout sessions will help to unleash our collective creative juices. The process will generate ideas and insights that can help us plan the way forward for our organization. \nWhether you are new to mindfulness or have a longstanding practice and/or promote or teach mindfulness\, this will be a wonderful and unique opportunity to learn and interact with like minded people who share common goals.. \nPlease consider joining us for one or both sessions. You do not need to attend the first session to attend the second one. \nIf you have questions\, please contact us at mindfulnesshamilton@gmail.com \nFacilitator: Sean Park\, PhD \nSean is a teaching professor in the Department of Medicine at McMaster University. Through his highly experiential way of teaching\, he inspires business\, engineering\, and health science students to design and create new futures with empathy\, creativity\, insight\, and foresight. His doctoral work in contemplative studies and arts education\, training as a mindfulness educator\, and adventures in global healing traditions lends a unique perspective to the history and future of mindfulness. \n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Chronic Pain and the Role of Mindfulness with Amy Hondronicols: An Evening Workshop with Amy Hondronicals Oct 5 2021
DESCRIPTION:This will be an interactive workshop with a number of mindfulness practices and time for Q&A \nAmy will define chronic pain and mindfulness\, from the context of her approach to practice of physiotherapy.   \nShe will discuss:  \n\nThe existence of pain with and without damage\, the example of phantom limb pain\, and how the context affects pain perception.\nNeuroplasticity and how is that related to mindfulness. She will discuss brain maps\, how they are affected by pain and injury\, use\, and mindfulness.\nThe stress response in pain and the acute and long-term changes that can happen. \n\n\nThe connection between thoughts\, emotions and pain \nMindful strategies to help cope with chronic pain: movement\, graduated challenges\, breathing practices\, progressive muscle relaxation\, positive self-talk\, and education \n\n  \nAmy is a physiotherapist working in a public setting. She encounters people dealing with chronic pain on a daily basis\, and this has shaped her practice to be aware of the factors that affect pain in every interaction. She thinks that mindfulness plays a key role in how physiotherapy can help people move better\, and cope with pain. In particular\, she is interested in how mindful movement can power change in the nervous system. Some of her favourite ways to move are sailing on the Bay or biking through Hamilton!

SUMMARY:Mindfulness in Sleep and Dreams with Jivasu:  a half day workshop Saturday Sept. 18 2021
DESCRIPTION:Saturday Sept 18\, 2021 9:00 – 12:00 By Zoom \nDreams and sleep play an important role in healing\, \ creativity\, and spiritual growth. They are part of our subconscious and protect the brain in many ways\, including reducing information overload\, removing toxic energy of trauma through nightmares\, informing about repressed emotions and desires\, helping us to learn\, and accessing our creativity. Many great inventions\, including the discovery of DNA structure occurred in a dream. \nWe can train ourselves to meditate in dreams to experience higher levels of consciousness.  In Tibetan Buddhism\, a full yoga of dreams and sleep was created for this purpose. In Indian tradition\, the dream state is described as a distinct state of consciousness. In many ancient healing traditions\, dream diagnosis is used to assess the state of a person’s health. \nThis retreat is suitable for beginners\, intermediate\, or advanced meditators. \nIn this workshop\, you will learn about the science\, psychology\, and spirituality of sleep and dreams. You will practice techniques to remember and interpret dreams for healing\, creativity\, and spiritual growth. The workshop will include talk\, question and answer sessions\, and the practice of breathing exercises and meditation. \nJivasu is a physician\, spiritual teacher and the founder of the Natural Spirituality movement. Natural Spirituality is to unlock the powers of the Natural Self. It is grounded in science and the body. He has also studied mind-body medicine at Harvard. He teaches Natural Spirituality\, Nada Yoga (Yoga of sacred chants and music)\, Kundalini Yoga and Mind-Body Medicine all over the world. \nTo register go to Event Brite \nQuestions?mindfulnesshamilton@gmail.com \n  \n

SUMMARY:Mindfulness Hamilton  presents Mindful Self Compassion: A Saturday Morning Retreat via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) is an empirically-supported program designed to cultivate self-compassion and is based on the ground     breaking research of Kristin Neff and the clinical expertise of Chritopher Germer. \nMindfulness opens us to the present moment. Kindness and compassion opens our hearts to suffering so that we can give ourselves what we need. Common humanity opens us to our inter-relatedness so that we realize that we are not alone. \nResearch has demonstrated that self-compassion is strongly associated with emotional well-being\, reduced anxiety\, depression and stress levels\, maintenance of healthy habits such as diet and exercise\, as well as more satisfying personal relationships. MSC practices enable participants to respond to difficult moments in their lives with kindness\, care\, and understanding. \nStudies confirm that self-compassion is strongly associated with emotional well-being; less anxiety\, depression and stress; maintenance of healthy habits such as diet and exercise and more satisfying personal relationships!  And it is easier than you think. \nConsider attending this workshop if you are experiencing: \n\nirritability\nburn out or care-giver fatigue \ndifficult emotions\nrelentless inner critic\nshame and other negative emotions\njudgment towards others\ndifficulty in interpersonal relationships\nrumination\nlittle joy or appreciation in your life\nsuffering \n\nA moment of self-compassion can change your entire day. A string of such moments can change the course of your life.”     –    Christopher Germer \nThis workshop will be an introduction to MSC and it’s origins along with introducing some of the basic MSC practices. It will be a combination of didactic and practice with time for Q&A and discussion. \n \nBarbara Smith\, MFA\, MS psych\, RP has been a registered Psychotherapist in private practice for three decades.

SUMMARY:Thought Awareness: The Basis of Mindfulness
DESCRIPTION:“What consumes your mind\, controls your life.” \nLearn to take back control with Mindfulness Meditation. \nIntroduction to ‘Thought-Awareness’: the basis of all mindfulness. \nDid you know that the average human has 60\,000 thoughts each and every day? \nI’ve done the math\, and guess what?! \nThat’s almost one thought every second of your waking hours – exhausting\, right? \nBut here’s where it gets even crazier… \nOn average\, around 95% of those thoughts are repetitive\, and 80% are negative. \nWe are literally thinking negative thoughts on repeat like all freakin’ day! \nThese negative thoughts manifest in different ways including: \n\nNegative self-talk/judgement\nDwelling on the past\nWorrying about the future\n\nIn this workshop\, we’ll explore the foundations of Mindfulness & Mindfulness Meditation to see how you can regain control over your thoughts. We’ll look at the most common ‘mind traps’ and how we can get out from those traps. Turn those negative\, repetitive thoughts into positive ones. \nWe will engage in mindfulness exercises and meditations that you may bring with you into your daily life to assist you in noticing and regulating your thought patterns to help you create a calmer\, less-stressful and more positive life. \nRegistration is required: https://www.wakeuptowhatyouchoose.com/product-page/taking-back-control \nWaterdown\, ON
