How is this workshop different from the 8 week Mindfulness-Based Childbirth Education Class?
This workshop specifically focuses on how we can use our moment-to-moment awareness to work with physical pain during childbirth. It also provides a very good introduction to mindfulness practice. (Please see “What Participants Say”). However, it is not possible to gain the depth of understanding of mindfulness, both its power and its potential for helping us in our parenting and our daily lives in just one day. That understanding may begin to come over time with consistent home practice and through learning with others as we do in the 8 week class. The other difference is that it is not possible in a one-day workshop to create the kind of friendships, connectedness and community that happens as people share experiences together over time.
