Neuroscience, Mindfulness, and Mindfulness Meditation

Description

You will be fascinated to know what neuroscience is teaching us about the brain's effect on how we think, feel, act, learn and change. Explore how this emerging science informs our understanding of the practice of mindfulness. It can promote psychotherapeutic change, strengthen interpersonal relations and enhance our learning. Drawing upon the new neurosciences and 25 years of evidence based research, you will explore what we have come to know about the brain and how brain creates mind. You will then look at this foundational knowledge and its implications in health care, education and the mind at work. You will participate in group dialogue and in-class meditations.
