You are welcome to join Erica for a day of mindfulness practice in The Mindfulness and Compassion Centre 33 Pembroke Street Lower, Dublin 2,
This Day of Mindfulness, is an opportunity for us to put aside our usual busyness - or inertia - and practice mindfully being with ourselves in a supportive community and environment. Suitable for anyone who has completed an 8 week mindfulness-based course (MBSR, MBCT, MSC etc.) or who has done a day-long retreat before.
This day offers an invitation to create some space in your life, to give yourself permission to slow down, to re-connect to yourself and let yourself be. As we practice this for ourselves we are co-creating a holding space for others to do the same. We will also spend some time in nature in our local quiet little park.
Deliberately making a clearing in your life can be supportive in the cultivation of presence snd kindness towards your experience. If you have 'fallen off the meditation wagon' this may be exactly what you need to kick-start a new beginning. It could be an act of self care.
We will be practicing all of the practices from the 8 week MBSR/MBCT course - the body scan, sitting meditation, mindful movement, walking meditation, eating meditation, and a few others, and the invitation is to make the whole day a seamless period of practice, with no outside interruptions, as best you can. You are invited to put the phone away for the day.
Please wear comfy clothing and layers for outside walking in Fitzwilliam Square, (fingers crossed the weather will allow us to go outside!). There will be plenty of yoga mats, blankets and cushions at the venue but please feel free to bring your own if needs be.
Bring a packed lunch. There is a little kitchen in the centre where you can make tea and coffee which will be provided.
Places are limited.
