Meditation – Minding the Body, Mending the Mind

…a study of meditation and mindfulness

The mission of this study is to introduce you to the concept of mindfulness and the practice of meditation.  By using a multitude of sources to explore meditation it is my hope that you realize the potential that these skills can bring to improve the quality of your life.  We will use Joan Borysenko’s Minding the Body, Mending the Mind, as a base study on how to meditate.  We will hear from Jon Kabat-Zinn. We will listen to NPR podcasts that teach you meditate, and podcasts that explore the practical implications of mindfulness.

At the end of this study I hope that I’ve sufficiently introduced you to the miracle of mindfulness.
