Mindfulness for Anxiety Reduction With Lucy Schwabe | Mindfulness Plus

What will be covered in this session?

Applied mindfulness practice for anxiety reduction

Research has shown that mindfulness helps reduce anxiety. Mindfulness practice teaches us how to respond to what we experience with awareness of what is happening in the present moment, rather than simply acting instinctively, unaware of what emotions or motives may be driving our actions.

In this session you will be guided through a meditation for anxiety reduction, there will be a short talk on the theme and time for discussion as well as questions and answers.
