“Positive Psychology and the Body: How the body influences our wellbeing and resilience”
When: September 29th, 2019
Where: Yogaloft Luxembourg-Kirchberg
So much of our focus on wellbeing and resilience centres around the mind and how what we think influences our lives. As important as this may be, we generally overlook the importance of the body and its contribution to our ability to be happy and bounce back from difficult situations.
In this workshop, we will look at the body’s role in wellbeing and resilience and how you can learn to integrate your body in your wellbeing and resilience practices. Together, we will look at how your physiology, biochemistry and neuroscience influence your mind and how they can be used to increase overall happiness.
The workshop will be both theoretical and practical, but don’t worry, the science will be explained in everyday language and you will get to practice tools that you can continue to practice at home, as well as getting food for thought for after the workshop.
No previous knowledge required.
Just bring yourself, comfortable clothes and a little notebook and pen.
Should you wish to continue on your personal journey after the workshop, you can book private sessions with Pamela.
Embodied Mindfulness: Building a positive relationship with the body through Mindfulness practice
When: October 27th, 2019
Where: Yogaloft Luxembourg-Merl
What is Mindfulness?
Mindfulness is an ancient Buddhist meditation practice that teaches us to become present and live in harmony with ourselves and the world. It allows us to examine who we are, to question our worldview and to find our place in the world by living each moment fully and consciously.
So much of our days happen in auto-pilot mode – when we learn to become mindful, we return to being in touch with ourselves and become able to fully experience our life as it unfolds. Through careful, kind, non-judgmental and systematic self-observation, we learn to foster a deeper relationship with ourselves, with others and with life in general.
Mindfulness is a simple concept, but through its practice and application, it allows us to develop greater awareness, clarity and acceptance of present moment experiences which, in turn, allows us to realize the richness and depth of our possibilities for growth and transformation.
A regular Mindfulness practice brings greater happiness, more resilience, more wisdom and better health!
In this workshop
We will focus our Mindfulness practice on the body, and on creating more body awareness. The body has an intelligence that largely surpasses that of the mind, yet our culture has put all the focus on the mind. Being cut off from our bodies, we miss so many of its important messages; what makes us feel good, what makes us feel bad, what needs we have etc.
In this workshop, we will put all our attention on the body, re-creating a positive relationship to it, understanding its messages and learning to care for it on a deeper level
Whether you wish to discover Mindfulness, experience a deeper immersion into this practice or learn to develop a personal practice, this practical workshop is for you!
No previous Mindfulness practice required. Please wear comfortable clothes.
Should you wish to continue on your personal journey after the workshop, you can book private sessions with Pamela.
