Mindfulness and New Beginnings
The first week of classes is a wonderful time to think about the possibilities inherent in all new beginnings — from a new breath, to a new day, to a new year — and to a new opportunity to practice mindfulness. This session will explore the inherent invitation in mindfulness to begin again with every breath, in every moment.
