Being the Calm

Join Carla Waites and discover how to be a centre of calm in the midst of uncertainty and storm, for yourself and for others.
Explore practices that will enhance your capacity ” to be with” and to manage the unpleasant while also deepening your capacity “to take in” and savour the pleasant. Learn how to lessen anxiety, worries and manage stressors.
All of these above practices and strategies are built upon the current neuroscience and mindfulness research as presented by Dr. Kristin.Neff, Dr. S. Shapiro, Dr. Rick Hanson, and John Kabat-Zinn and others.
