<description>Feeling stressed out, anxious, depressed or just fed up with a noisy mind?
If so, learn how to feel more relaxed and cope with the stress of work, study and other life events with greater calm and wisdom, by being aware of how we react to stress and even unnecessarily increase it sometimes. In this course you will learn:

The relationship between your thoughts, emotions and physiological stress responses
Techniques for noticing and shifting your reactions to stress
Techniques for calming your thoughts and emotions, including several forms of meditation, stretches, and guided imagery.
How to put this all together in daily practices that increase your well being and ability to cope well with stress

 
This course is suitable for people new to mindfulness but also a great opportunity for people who have done an Introduction to Mindfulness to really lay down a foundation in a relaxed atmosphere.
 
People who have benefited from this programme include health professionals, social workers, teachers, students, lecturers, parents, business people and people recovering from major illnesses or operations
 
“I believe that the training has given me an awareness of skills that will benefit me and my family and community by gaining an acceptance of myself and others” Nick Woolicroft
 
“There is a wonderful simplicity about the practice of mindfulness that took me by surprise. To come and learn something that you cant do wrong is wonderfully freeing. Making a small space in my life to practice regularly has helped me be more present and less stressed in my busy life.” Dr Susie Lawless

<description>Get away from the Winter in NZ and enjoy a mindful  and creative retreat in beautiful Daku resort.

Workshop Outline
During this workshop we will be encouraging the practice of mindfulness, to enjoy movement, meditation, art and being in this wonderful environment. We will focus on:
• Sitting, walking and eating meditation
• Stretching and breathing to ground in the present moment
• Flowing from stillness to gentle movement that comes from within you
• Allowing your movement to flow into creative form on to paper through a shared group experience and in your own individual space.
• At times, we may be in silence at other times talking and sharing.
No previous experience of mindfulness or creative arts is necessary.
During the middle of the day there will be time to go on local excursions, swimming, snorkelling, kayaking, or paddle boarding all of which are included in the price or just hang out.

Testimonials
“For me the combination of Mindfulness, Movement and Creativity was anxiously irresistible. I needn’t have worried. The workshop offered a balance of experiences designed to engage the senses, mind, body and spirit. Mindful walking triggered my own creative muse, and the flexibility of approach allowed me to pursue my own direction when it arose. As leaders, Kovido and Suraya complimented each other in approach. All round, the weekend was an experience of discovery and personal insight.”
– Jenny, Dunedin
“I thoroughly enjoyed my weekend of mindfulness, movement and creativity with Kovido and Suraya. They provided an environment of freedom and acceptance to take a break from the busy-ness of life and look within at what really matters. Thanks to a great team that helped me gently explore my thoughts through music, art and meditation, the benefits linger with me still.”
– Miranda Barnes, Gore




“It was a great weekend, a chance to go within and to express what is within with colour and dance. Thank you very much for that experience!” 

-Nicole, Dunedin
