Life with Full Attention

By putting mindfulness back into its Buddhist context, this course offers a way to transform ourselves and the ways we affect the world around us. As we learn to live with full attention, we become wiser - and the world needs wise people, who aren’t reacting habitually to life. Over eight weeks, delivered both in-person and online, you will explore various aspects of mindfulness and how to put them into practice in your life.
