- An increased ability to relax

Are there any online courses?
That would be a good idea – bu-ut, in my experience, there is an interaction dimension, a person to person transmission, when learning the practice of ‘mindfulness’. I encourage the people I work with to attend Meditation Class at the Tibetan Buddhist Rime Institute nearly where I live and work in Tecoma. And the ‘effects’ of consistent mindfulness practice are astounding. I would need to think at length and deeply about how to design a ‘mindfulness’ online training program – that is both enlightening and effective. Good to meet you Rupa Coach. Go the Authentic Life … Peace Out. Imogen
Thank you for your beautiful response! Have you heard of Vipassana meditation. I have attended a 1- day course. Indeed a consistent mindfulness practice is probably one of the most important practices one can adopt for one’s well-being. Good to meet you too, Imogen! I hope you can reach out to more and more people to attend Meditation classes. This is a wonderful initiative. Peace and Happiness to you.
