Leaving Stress Behind: A Mindful Approach to Living With Ease

Stress is seen by many as a "given" in today's world, but in fact it is neither normal nor healthy. Stress actually compounds difficulties in our lives, creating greater challenges for our health, relationships, work productivity, and more. And while we think that it's everything in the external world - from our job to our relationships to our financial conditions, and more - that creates stress, it is actually our relationship to what is happening that creates the stress. The good news is that this relationship can change!


In this workshop we will explore - 
  • What constitutes "stress"? How does our life experience impact our perceptions and thus impact our experience of stress? Can these perceptions be changed?
  • How does stress harm our bodies and minds?
  • How can we use mindfulness to put the brakes on stress and truly uproot it?
This class is approved for 4 CEUs.
