Meditation is at the core of a mindfulness practice. A mindful meditation practice is like doing push-ups for the mind. The more we practice, the more mindful we become. Meditative practices improve concentration and focus. The insights that develop through these practices can be integrated into daily living, reducing suffering and cultivating equanimity. It is a powerful tool for increasing self-awareness, acceptance and loving kindness.
In our WellnessTalk, Cultivating Mindfulness Through Meditation, Dr. Scott Treatman will introduce The Eight-Fold Path, a set of non-linear steps or virtues that cultivate living in a mindful way that benefits ourselves and those around us. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in a number of meditation experiences and learn how meditation can have a profound effect in reducing suffering.
