Wat je zal leren
Over the next 6 days, you'll experience a special kind of 'waking up'. It won't involve a private epiphany, or magic formula for enlightenment. Or something you need to manifest. It only involves you 'waking up' to one thing: to the power of the present moment. To being. And by harnessing the power of mindful presence - of being more now - we'll move from: Busy Mind to Being Mind Toxic Overthinking to Cultivating Clarity Stress Reactivity to Stress Resilience Ego-Driven to Awakened Connection Being Separated to Being Interconnected We'll share how our prehistoric evolved stress response, neurobiology and environmental conditioning, causes us stress, to develop unhealthy habits and creates a sense of separation from others. From being connected. And through personal stories, real world examples and guided mindfulness meditations, we'll share memorable ways to recall and re-connect with the timeless space of being, overcoming these barriers to enjoy healthier, happier and more fulfilling connection. This course is ideal if you: - Want to overcome the separation we experience in 'being' with ourselves and others. - Would like a relatable guide to cultivating 'being' with powerful meditation practices to help you. - Want a spark of inspiration or a mindful nudge in the direction of greater connection and wellbeing. It begins when you "Overcome The Six Barriers to Being"

Busy Mind To Being Mind
In Day 1, we explore how our modern world and habits of the mind condition us for distraction, even when there is little to be done. We bring this to life through some familiar and historic examples. And together we'll overcome our first barrier to being - our busy mind - by engaging our "being mind" through a mindful and self-compassionate practice. Together we will acknowledge, accept and bring presence.
Les 2
Toxic Overthinking To Cultivating Clarity
In Day 2 we look at the causes of our overthinking and ruminating minds, and the negative impact these habits can have on our brains and emotional wellbeing. And to overcome this barrier to cultivating more clarity, we'll move out of 'our heads' and into our bodies, deepening non-judgmental awareness, connection and calm through a Body Scan.
Les 3
Stress Reactivity To Stress Resilience
In Day 3, we revisit our prehistoric roots to remember why we 'react' so powerfully and adversely to stress. And why this very reactivity inhibits our ability to make healthier responses. We simply don't have the 'space' to respond. With the help of an inspiring quote and a Mindful Breath Awareness meditation, we'll calm our nervous system and learn why repeating this practice helps us find the space we need, to enhance our stress resilience.
Les 4
Scarce Time To Sacred Time
In Day 4, we bring awareness to how much value we attach to 'busyness', to striving for achievements and getting things done in life. And in contrast, what life might look like if our awareness and attention were more focused on what is happening now. We contrast the feeling of a life of 'scarce time', with a life slowing down and sacred time. More 'now' time to invest in our happiness and wellbeing. We cultivate this intention together, in meditation.
Les 5
Ego-Driven To Awakened Connection
In Day 5, we begin with the story of a lost toy, symbolic of how over-identification with 'things', labels, beliefs and patterns of thinking, condition us for separation from the world. And disconnection from others. How we all protect our ego-driven sense of self, with our habits and endless striving. So instead we invite an intentional pause to meditate in the presence of our body, breath and the space around us. To help us move from ego-driven over-identification to cultivating more awakened connection.
Les 6
Being Separated To Being Interconnected
In Day 6, we strip back the layers of separation we might imagine exist, between us and those we share this wonderful world with. And discuss how we are united by the things that appear to separate us - including our struggles, neurobiolological wiring and identities. Together, we will overcome our final barrier to being - moving from being separated to being connected - by grounding in presence, sharing loving-kindness for ourselves and others and reflecting on the timeless things that weave us into one tapestry.
