PRACTICAL MINDFULNESS

Learn how to train your mind to be more calm, present and focused. That will improve your work-performance and also quality of life and well-being.
We live in a fast-paced world with many distractions.
There is always more on our to-do-list than what fits into our time, our mind is constantly overloaded.
The result is, for example, we cannot stop thinking even when we need to (like when we want to sleep).

Mindfulness will teach you how to decrease the fluctuation of your mind, lower the tension in your body and live more in the present moment. It will teach you how to switch-off the autopilot and instead of being dragged by circumstances, consciously create your response.
