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

SUMMARY:MINDFULNESS\, CREATIVITY & SPIRITUALITY WITHIN EXPRESSIVE ARTS
DESCRIPTION:Haliburton School of the Arts\, June 25-29\, 2018 \nInstructor: Marybeth Leis Druery \nhttps://flemingcollege.ca/continuing-education/courses/mindfulness-creativity-spirituality-within-expressive-arts \nDescription: \nEssential to wellbeing\, the interconnectivity of mindfulness\, spirituality and creativity will be explored through expressive arts experiences in this reflective\, contemplative and creative course. Through meditation\, guided visualization\, art making\, movement\, sound and writing\, you will work both indoors and out in the natural world to connect to self\, community\, spirit and nature to develop a personal practice of the contemplative and creative\, centred self. Sometime will be spent in silent reflection while walking\, writing or making art. This course will appeal to those who are searching for a deepened connection to a self-care practice and to those who are working with caregivers or populations who could benefit from the principles and practices. \nAdditional info: \nThe course is taught in a retreat-like soulful manner (with 12-15 people) and is a chance to also explore self-care. The tools gained in the course can enhance a variety of human service fields.  \nHSA has rustic cabins (shared with 1 person) that can be booked for $226 for the week by calling Amber: 1-866-353-6464 X3 \nLet me know if you have questions about the course content (leismb@mcmaster.ca).
