Self-Regulation in Times of Adversity

Would you like to learn more tools to work with difficulty?

Often we find that any experience of aversion kick-starts the habitual reactions that keep us stuck in stress, anxiety and depression.

How then do we stay in control when our body and mind are dysregulating?

How can we use mindfulness in the middle of an angry or anxious episode?

Learning how to observe and tolerate difficult experiences arising in the body and mind is the key to preventing our habitual reactions that destroy the quality of the next moment.

This session will include mindfulness practices that give you a chance to go deeper and truly explore the benefits of mindfulness to regulate difficult emotion. This is also a chance to connect with a like-minded community for support and inspiration.
