It can often be easy to rush through life without stopping to notice everything around you, especially in the current climate. Paying more attention to the present moment, to your own thoughts and feelings, and to the world around you can help to improve your mental wellbeing.

This series of interactive mindfulness sessions will focus on a different topic each month based on the foundations of mindfulness–practice. Join Dr Carolyn Blair for a 15-20 minute interactive discussion on the chosen topic and a 20-25 minute period of mindfulness based practice.

If you can’t make all sessions, don’t worry, feel free to come as your diary permits.

“Mindfulness helps us get better at seeing the difference between what’s happening and the stories we tell ourselves about what’s happening, stories that get in the way of direct experience” – Sharon Salzberg
