The aim of this course: It is to promote awareness of your mind and body through the cultivation of mindful awareness.

The program is a skills-based learning course and is not group therapy. It is not being offered as a treatment for any specific physical or psychological condition. It is not suitable for people who are currently experiencing very severe problems in these areas.
