Presence – A Mindfulness Course for Wonder and Awe
How do you spend the gift of your attention? And does it align with what really matters to you?
Our attention is continually pulled by competing demands and the overwhelming number of choices we make everyday. Mindfulness practices can help us choose how we spend our attention. And over time, can alter the ways that we feel, think, behave and relate to others and ourselves.
Inspired by research and literature on Awe and Joy and the perspective of secular Buddhism this four week course is a creative exploration of the Four Foundations of Mindfulness. You will learn practices of mindfulness and meditation and ways to infuse your practice with attitudes of awe and wonder.
Feel inspired to integrate mindfulness practices into your everyday life. And cultivate skilful attitudes to relate to the challenges and the delights, the ups and downs of your everyday life in new ways.
Start where you are. This course is open to new and experienced practitioners. Use the power of your attention to cultivate awareness, curiosity, aliveness and insight. Open up to life.
In this course, you will explore:
* The science of mindfulness
* Secular Buddhist teachings
* Spiritual Ecology practices
* A variety of meditation and mindfulness styles
* Journaling questions to gain personal insight
* Group discussions and questions
* Home practices to cultivate attitudes of awe, joy and delight.

About Becca
I am a seeker of awe and joy. I am pulled by the magnetism of movement and mindfulness practices. And I believe in the power of communities as a force for change, connection and action.
I’ve been moving my body since inception, when microscopic cells began dividing in the magic of the womb. I’ve played sport, raced bikes and fallen in love with weights. Throughout this, yoga has been a foundational part of how I take care of myself. And through the interconnection between movement and mindfulness I have found steady ground on which to stand.
