We will practice formally with guided instruction during class time and between class meetings. Class discussion, dialogue and informal practice experiments will focus on attitudes and actions that support awareness in your life. The class meets for 90 minutes over four weeks. This course is designed for graduates of the 8-week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) course, 4-week Intro to Mindfulness course, and Allison’s private session students that have completed their individual program. Important logistics: During this 4-week refresher course, you will have access to MBSR and other audio practice recordings. It's best if you can commit to a full 30-minute practice on most days between workshop meetings. Home practice assignments will be emailed to you after each class meeting. Please plan to attend all in-person sessions. There will be no make-up sessions or phone calls available. During this refresher you will— • Commit to daily practice with the support and inspiration of fellow practitioners • Revisit and engage in foundational mindfulness practices: sitting, breathing, moving, walking, body scanning, speaking and listening • Reflect and inquire about your life in practice, as it is right now • Share your experience and wonderings with others, in small and large groups • Learn how to deepen the habit of a regular meditation practice
