Program · Mindful Leadership
A deeper, more detailed exploration of the philosophy and tools behind mindful leadership — for those ready to take the practice further.
Do you have pressure, tension, confusion, or discomfort from life's experiences? Chau Yoder of High Spirits will lead a discussion and lesson in techniques and exercises. You'll feel great and be better equipped to manage stress — taking a leadership role in managing your health and overall wellness.
A general overview — about 20 minutes of discussion, then the exercises themselves, same as session one but with Health Stick exercises added.
If you enjoyed the previous sessions, join us for a more in-depth exploration of the tools presented — your chance to apply the principles and philosophy you've learned. Chau leads participants through mental and physical exercises meant to increase awareness and heighten one's state of mind, building on the ability to stay in touch with the present moment and manage stress.
Attendees explore the five stages of Chi Gung exercise, focused on health improvement. Chi Gung is an ancient Chinese technique meaning "working on one's energy flow."
Living mindfully includes being aware of what "enters" your body, both physically and mentally. In this session, you'll practice eating consciously — identifying appropriate reasons for eating and deepening enjoyment of food — and learn to focus your attention to avoid having your emotions exploited by external stimuli like television, movies, negative talk, and advertising.
Chau leads a 45-minute guided meditation to help you achieve total relaxation. Take advantage of this relaxation opportunity.
