Mindfulness Self-care (Mandarin Only)

Guest speaker: Teresa Cheng, Chinese American Coalition for Compassionate Care (CACCC) Volunteer Instructor

The benefits of practicing mindfulness have long been confirmed by research. Mindfulness is keeping awareness and focus on the present without judgment. It has been widely used in mainstream medicine. It helps relieve stress and promote physical and mental health. Based on “Mindfulness,” CACCC has developed a new curriculum suitable for Chinese culture—”Mindfulness Self-care.”

This event will be offered in Mandarin only.

修習正念 (mindfulness) 帶來的好處，早已為研究所證實。正念源於禪修靜坐，練習對當下保持覺察和專注，且不加評斷，已經廣泛應用在主流醫學以及社會各界，以舒解壓力並促進身心健康。美華慈心關懷聯盟以「正念」為基調， 發展出一套適合華人文化的全新課程－「正念的自我照顧」。 雷叔雲是美華慈心關懷聯盟義工講師暨專案負責人。她以《生命不再等待》一書榮獲第33 屆金鼎獎最佳翻譯人獎，同時翻譯過不少正念有關著作，本身也受過正念減壓的訓練。

本講座以普通話進行。
