The School of Mindful Living is dedicated to the exploration and practice of present-moment awareness, kindness and whole-hearted living. A commitment to mindful living contributes to our physical, mental, spiritual and communal well-being and can lead to a life rich with meaning and vitality.

Mindfulness is a collection of skills and perspectives that can be learned in a relatively short time. Putting these skills into practice takes many forms and lasts a lifetime. It's called practice because it's ALL practice; how we pay attention to the messages of our bodies, our thoughts, our feelings, our stories, our forms of expression. Paying attention, with kindness, is what helps us live a life of integrity and peace of heart.

Individual and small group meetings are skillfully designed to teach practical methods for recognizing and reducing unhealthy stress and for becoming aware of our habits of thought and action. This awareness is the first step toward transformation. Using the body and breath as guides, we come to fully inhabit our lives, naturally releasing that which no longer serves us. The practice of mindfulness is the ultimate "user-friendly" tool for being present to all apects of our lives.
