Life with Full Attention

Eight week Introduction to Mindfulness course

AKL sky line

"When we are unhappy, frustrated, or angry, we so often look to the big stories - childhood traumas, the sate of the world. We would be better off looking to make small, practical changes to how we lead our lives. For most of us, life is not full of momentous events and overwhelming emotions but of small things: the car to be serviced, toys to be put away, an online booking to be made. Life goes better, runs smoother, is happier, if we attend to the small things. So mindfulness needs to start here: remembering the baby-wipes, double-checking our flight departure time, prioritizing our to-do list. This is day-to-day mindfulness."

- quote from Maitreyabandhu's book "Life with Full Attention"

Mindfulness is about living fully and vividly, without rumination or distraction. This course provides a systematic approach to mindfulness and authentic happiness. Starting with applying mindfulness in everyday life, and culminating in mindfulness of the nature of reality.

Suitable for beginners and those with experience of meditation and Buddhism.
