Mindful living: bringing attention to everyday life
Mindful living means being present, with attention, in what you do, feel and choose. In this course you learn the basics of mindfulness, practise breathing, the body scan and loving-kindness, bring attention to everyday activities such as eating, walking and listening, and learn to deal more consciously with stress and emotions, including around money. You build a routine of your own that you can keep up. The course is not therapy or treatment: if you struggle with anxiety, low mood or trauma, seek professional help. Each lesson has four tabs: lesson, practice, exercises and going further.
