This course will include an in-depth exploration of mindfulness of the body as a path toward calm and connection to ourselves and others.  Much more than just a relaxation technique, mindfulness gives us a new way to relate to all of our experience, with kindness, with interest and without judgment.  With mindfulness, we can step out of habitual reactions and find new ways to respond to ourselves and others. Each class will include guided meditation practice, teaching, and Q&A, as well as optional homework.
