"The thing is that we're not going to be perfect, right? We're just going to make our way in the world, and do our best. Our relationships matter. Our choices and words matter. So when we do misstep what does that mean for our practice? What is our relationship with ourselves that allows us to interact with a moment of a mistake, or a moment of imperfection so that we feel at ease enough with having been imperfect to go back and address it." ~ Danae Laura, ED If you missed yesterday's youth short film, don't worry - there's still time to watch and enter our exciting raffle! Today, we're shifting our focus to another crucial aspect of our work. We believe that by introducing mindfulness to educators, administrators, and parents, we create an environment where youth are encouraged to pause, breathe, and connect with their inner world. This cultivation of mindfulness empowers both adults and young people to access the power of choice. Our CBI Rebrand Daily Challenge continues, offering you the chance to win a weekend retreat with our Executive Director, Danae Laura (a $959 value). Here's how it works: each day of the challenge, we'll share themed content with a specific engagement prompt. Every time you engage with a daily prompt, you earn one entry into the raffle. The more days you participate, the more chances you have to win! One lucky winner will be selected at the end of the challenge and announced in our August Newsletter. Today's theme is Educator Support. Over the past year, we've trained nearly 200 educators, bringing mindfulness into schools and community-based organizations (CBOs). Our approach is unique: we emphasize the importance of educators tending to their own nervous systems as the most effective way to impact youth environments. As our lead facilitator, Brian Thompson, explains, "We help educators locate mindfulness tools, and understand how much power they have in modeling behaviors—instead of attempting to 'control' kids or 'force' them to do anything." We encourage trainees to approach teaching with "gentleness, curiosity, and a willingness to explore." We invite you to watch our short film on Educator Support. To enter today's raffle challenge, simply comment on the video (on YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, or Instagram) with a line or phrase that resonates with you. Remember, each day you participate increases your chances of winning the retreat! Your support of CBI makes all of this possible, and we're deeply grateful for your engagement, and donations to our community. With gratitude,? All of Us at Copper Beech https://lnkd.in/eBR5Uu2s

Do you want to (re)learn #Mindfulness? I say re-learn, because you already have this capacity, but perhaps it's buried under the stress of life. I will be teaching my next course in September. Registration is now open! This is the 8-week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction course, the gold standard in Mindfulness training and still the most-researched programme available. It is your opportunity to explore Mindfulness in a friendly group environment from the comfort of your home (via ZOOM). This is NOT a “relaxation” course. Mindfulness continues to be mis-sold as a magic pill. Taking part in this programme will require a significant time and meditation practice commitment. No “positive vibes” stuff either, but a genuine deep-dive into the most evidence-based Mindfulness curriculum available. We will explore a combination of mindfulness meditation, teachings on stress reactivity, gentle mindful movement, and use interactive group dialogue to help you explore habitual patterns of thinking and behaviour. These practices can help alleviate stress, anxiety, and burnout, and help you relate to life more skilfully so you can better self-regulate, build resilience, and flourish. For a full course description, please visit my website: ChristophSpiessens.com The fee for this course is £175 + VAT. This includes tuition, a 120-page workbook, and meditation recordings.?I am committed to Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion. Group size = 20 students max. Concessions are available. Please get in touch if you’d like to apply: [email protected] or DM on LinkedIn. I look forward to exploring Mindfulness with you! You are in experienced hands: I am a BAMBA-registered teacher and have completed a Master’s degree in teaching Mindfulness at Bangor University. BAMBA (British Association of Mindfulness-Based Approaches) is the UK’s primary professional body of mindfulness teachers who teach under continued supervision. Its mission is to promote safe, ethical, and inclusive practices in the field of evidence-based secular mindfulness teaching in the UK. Please note: This course is not suitable for people who are currently experiencing severe depression or anxiety or have suicidal thoughts. Please contact your doctor or mental health support team. #mindfulness #meditation #wellbeing #mentalhealth #stress #anxiety #burnout #learning #personaldevelopment #mbsr
