The next date for this workshop at The School of Life Berlin is Saturday July 22nd, 2017. Buy tickets here!
We live busy, distracted and highly connected lives. For many of us, it’s difficult to find time for pausing and reflection outside of work, let alone during the working day.
How do we stay productive, creative, focused and calm in the face of never-ending ‘to do’ lists, flooding inboxes, the increasing demands of others and ‘knock off’ hours that run long into the night?
While there are great advantages to being connected 24/7, endless busyness can cause stress and exhaustion to the detriment of our health and wellbeing.
This workshop is designed for people who are curious about mindfulness, meditation, and the benefits of bringing both into everyday working life.
You will be introduced to meditation and mindfulness as ‘formal’ and ‘informal’ practices, and the ideas that underpin them.
This class explores how pausing to connect with our present moment can cultivate the equanimity needed to get the best from a hectic working life.
“Very informative, friendly. I like the use of real life examples and experiences.”
“Megan was great. I learned a lot and will follow up on a lot of stuff.”
“Resonating. Reaffirming. Educational. Mind Opening. Healing. Thank you.”
