Day of Mindfulness Practice (In Person)
You are welcome to join Erica for a day of mindfulness practice in The Mindfulness and Compassion Centre
This is a retreat day for anyone who is currently in the midst of or has completed one of our 8 Week Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) courses or anyone who has a regular practice and has attended a retreat previously.
A day of practice offers us an opportunity to set aside our usual tasks and responsibilities and take time to practice being present to the fullness of our experience.
Aside from the guidance, we will be practicing mostly in silence so that we can create the space to allow us to go a little deeper, perhaps, than in our usual mindfulness practice. We may see a little more clearly our reactivity, our patterns and we can practice bringing kindness and understanding to what we are discovering rather than our tendency to distract ourselves, criticise or attack ourselves. We invite awareness, presence and kindness to all of our experience, as best we can.
Please wear comfy clothing and layers for outside walking in Fitzwilliam Square, (fingers crossed the weather will allow us to go outside!). There will be plenty of yoga mats, blankets and cushions at the venue but please feel free to bring your own if needs be.
Bring a packed lunch and there is an area where we can make tea and coffee
Places are limited.
