Maintaining Calm Groups

Monthly Practice Sessions - Beginning February 2012

WHAT: Maintaining Calm is a monthly practice group for those who have completed Cultivating Calm, and who wish to maintain their skills practice with the support of a monthly group. The group is open to all who have completed Cultivating Calm. Whether your mindfulness and relaxation practice has been regular, or has waned, all are welcome. For some with busy lives, monthly practice is an opportunity to have a designated place to relax and return to mindfulness. Beginning in February 2012, 5 sessions are offered from February to June, with a view to continuing to run 5 more monthly practice sessions in the second half of the year. The focus will be on purely practicing relaxation and mindfulness.
