4-Week Program, Mindfulness for Managing Pain: An Introduction 

• Wednesday Mornings or Evenings,
  May 10 - May 31

Physical pain is not only felt in the body; our thoughts, feelings, and emotional reactions influence our experience of chronic pain.  These normal stress-pain reactions can contribute to making the pain worse.  Mindfulness practices can bring awareness to these automatic reactions and empower us to skillfully choose how we respond.

• Tuesday Mornings or Evenings,
  May 9 - May 30

• Wednesday Evenings,
  May 10 - May 31

• jueves por la tarde,

This 4-week live online course introduces you to the how’s and why’s of mindfulness and the potential benefits you may experience from a personal practice. Helping you to quickly integrate practical skills into your daily life, this program is a great resource for those who are new to mindfulness practices and for those seeking to strengthen their practice.  The weekly classes are experiential and include mindfulness meditation, the science behind mindfulness, its effects on physical and mental health, and dialogue and discussion in both large and small groups.
