  Course Contents and Overview:   This course begins with the essential mindfulness meditation techniques, such as mindful breathing, mindful body awareness, and mindful listening, and then moves on to slightly more advanced techniques such as mindfulness of thoughts and emotions.   The second half of the course goes into how to identify and overcome some of the most common obstacles you will face in mindfulness meditation practice, such as distraction, restlessness, self doubt, and judgement.   Finally, the course ends with a loving-kindness practice, designed to help you learn the practice of cultivating loving-kindness for yourself and others, an integral aspect of any well-rounded mindfulness meditation practice.   Cultivating the SKILL and SCIENCE of mindfulness:   Throughout the course there are guided mindfulness meditations at each step of the way. Rather than merely approaching mindfulness as an intellectual concept, this course gives you first-hand experience in order to tap directly into the state of mindful awareness, so you will be actively cultivating the skills of mindfulness as the course progresses. Each step of the way, you will be reducing stress and anxiety, and cultivating more happiness, gratitude, and contentment – all you need to do is follow along with the guided meditations!   In meditation, and particularly with mindfulness, an experiential understanding is much more important than a conceptual one, which is why this course focuses on the practical foundations. All of the lessons are based on a science of the mind, so there is no need to adopt a new belief system, take on any gurus, or learn how to chant things you don't understand. Mindfulness is much more of a science, or direct investigation, of the mind, than a belief system. By the end of the course, you will have the tools for investigating your own mind on a daily basis, which will allow you to let go of negative habits of the mind like stress, anxiety, and anger, and instead live with more joy, gratitude, and happiness!
