Mindfulness Meditation Foundations

With Gabriel Genest

8 Tuesdays, from 7:10 pm to 8:10 pm

This course aims to establish the foundations of mindfulness meditation with the Unified Mindfulness system, a clear, precise and comprehensive approach to meditation. The practice of meditation is defined in this system as the development of three complementary attentional skills: concentration, sensory clarity and equanimity.

The program for this session will present five meditation techniques and how to use them according to the needs, interests, and opportunities that arise in our lives. We will also learn how to practice these techniques in action in our daily lives, how to deal with obstacles that may arise in meditation and how to grow and deepen our practice over time.

Including teachings on techniques and strategies, guided meditations, and periods for discussions about practice, this highly interactive course aims to make the practice of mindfulness meditation accessible to all and to debunk myths that hinder its practice.

Both those who have never practiced meditation and experienced meditators who wish to deepen their practice are welcome!

** Workshop offered in French.

The yoga of sound and the sound of yoga

With Kim Zombik
5 Mondays, 7:15 to 8:30 pm
From March 31st to April 28th, 2025

 

Come and enjoy this 5-weeks session to discover our voices as a way to explore the path of yoga. Through practices inspired by Dhrupad chanting – a genre of ancient classical music from northern India – we will establish a deeper connection with the inner nature of yoga practice. Over the course of the 5 weeks, you will learn the Mritrunjaya mantra. This Hindu healing mantra is associated with Lord Shiva, the deity associated with the transformative power of yoga. Each week, we will do warm-ups, breathing exercises, deep listening in order to cultivate japa meditation (repetition of the mantra).

Accessories needed: belt, chair, one or two towels (or blankets).

Mindful Self-Compassion Course

With Kim Zombik
9 sundays, 6 to 8:30 pm
From April 27th to June 22nd, 2025, with a 3-hour retreat on May 25th

 

The times we are living in demand our resilience, presence and compassion. The Mindful Self-Compassion Course is a research-supported, 9-week training program designed to cultivate the skills and qualities of awareness, balance and compassion for others as well as ourselves. Research shows that self-compassion is strongly associated with emotional wellbeing, and surpasses the value of positive self-esteem in the long-term. Participants report less anxiety, depression, stress and burn out. Self-compassion supports maintenance of healthy habits and more satisfying personal relationships. Self-compassion provides emotional strength and resilience. And it’s easier than you might think!

Come to an introductory session with Kim and save $50 off the full price of $495.

Over the course of 8 weeks, plus a half-day retreat, (9 weeks total) we will explore the three components of self-compassion as well as the common misgivings. You will learn how to handle challenging situations and emotions with greater ease and clarity, motivate yourself with kindness rather than criticism, transform challenging relationships, manage caregiver fatigue, and understand the empirically-supported benefits of self-compassion. Included in the program is a guided half-day retreat, where you can experience and savour the practices of Mindful Self Compassion.
By the end of the program, you will have learned a series of short effective practices as well as longer practices that will support you in maintaining self-compassion in your daily life as you meet the demands of the times.

** Workshop offered in English.
