We all experience physical pain at times in our lives. We get sick, we get injured—it happens. But what role does our mind play during these moments? Do we find ourselves resisting, blaming, becoming fearful or depressed? Mindfulness offers an alternative way. We will see what it’s like when we pay greater attention to arising physical sensations, and the mental reactions which accompany them. We will engage in exercises to recognize, address, and gently transform how the mind participates in the process of pain and healing.

This class does not require special clothing or equipment.
