Schedule & Detailed topics

Tues Nov 3 - Introduction - Science of creating new habits and sticking to them! 

Tues Nov 10 - Gratitude - In order to begin feeling less reactive, it is crucial that we begin to intentionally gladden the mind. Learn to embody the felt experience of gratitude in order to offset some of the residual effects of too much stress on our body and mind.

Tues Nov 17 - Letting go of the constant narrative in our mind and finding presence is an essential component of any meditation practice. Once we begin the process of letting go, we begin rewiring our brain and discover we can choose what thoughts will be prioritized.

Tues Nov 24 - Compassion - Once we become more intentional about experiencing moments of compassion, this opens the door to facing our discomforts with more ease. Since "what we resist persists," the program will share tools that strengthen our compassion toward ourselves and others in order to feel more empowered when we meet our challenges.

Tues Dec 1 - The Breath & midway check in - Our ability to "bounce back" from challenges can be directly influenced by manipulating our breathing. You will learn to harness the breath in order to find a sense of balance. This will also be an opportunity to share any successes, roadblocks, or questions you might be having during the program.

Tues Dec 8 - The Pause - Tired of reacting and regretting what you do or say? Learn to "create more space between stimulus and your response."

Tues Dec 15 - Expanding our window of tolerance - Stress in not the problem, how we react to stress is the problem. Learn more practical ways of activating your relaxation response in order to feel more resilient to stress.

Tues Dec 22 - Wrap up
