Each session will open with taking some time to connect and presence ourselves in the virtual space: unmuting ourselves, saying hello, telling a story, saying something about how things are going. Next, we will do some breathwork, then a short gratitude practice, and then a short practice of acknowledging (silently) our hopes, our longings, what we are wanting more of in/from life, maybe even asking for it.
Following this we will do one of three practices:
1. Coming to our senses
2. Cultivating Equanimity
3. Guided Imagery (active imagination)
Join this online session hosted by UofG Women, Work and Wellness to explore research related to naming our emotions, including why it matters and how we can get better at it. The session will include self-reflection as well as small/large group discussions to help incorporate these ideas into our own lives.
