COURSE COURSE:
The course takes place in the form of meetings once a week for 2.5 hours for 8 weeks. The course also includes a day of mindfulness, which is a continuous practice of mindfulness in silence lasting several hours.

At the meetings, we develop awareness of the body, body sensations, sounds, emotions and thoughts using the bodyscan exercise, sitting meditation and mindful movement on based on yoga. For these exercises, you will receive audio recordings in the price of the course, according to which you will practice at home several times a week for approx. 45-60 minutes.

An important part of the course is the subject of stress - what stresses us, how we automatically react to stressful stimuli and how we can respond to stress more consciously and in a healthier way. We will also teach each other conscious communication.

No previous experience with meditation or yoga is necessary before the course. The exercises are very gentle and slow.
Before the course begins, there is an initial 30-minute individual consultation where you will learn more about the course. The price also includes a final consultation.
