Hi, everyone.  This week marks the end of MBSR Winter, 2010.  I’m looking forward to our last class together, but hope everyone will subscribe to this blog to stay aware of upcoming classes, and other things newsworthy and helpful for mindfulness practice.  Class notes are now available     Get notes for this class, including the MBSR Practice Resources  handout!

This week we ditch the CD’s and practice more independently!  Review the all day silent retreat and get class materials.

All MBSR participants and alumni are invited to the all day silent retreat tomorrow, March 13, 2010 at United Methodist Church, (9th and Beltrami) in the Upper Room. Park in the lot to the north of the church.

• Coffee tea and light snacks will be provided
• Water bottle and special pillows or props for comfort
• Wear layers to accommodate changing temperatures.

We will begin promptly at 9:00, so be there early if you want to visit. We will end promptly at 4:00pm.

Hi, MBSR site subscribers! I’m posting from my e-mail, and this is a test to see if subscribers get the post and also to see for myself where new posts show up on the site. It’s been a point of confusion for me, so now I’m including you in my learning process! Geri
