Workshop description
Discover
During the workshop, you will engage in a series of exercises and practices where you will experience the importance of mindfulness, purposeful directing of attention, detachment from your own and others' emotions, "anchoring" in the present moment, balance, and peace of mind. You will learn about the key mechanisms governing our thinking and actions, and you will discover how to close and open yourself to stimuli bombarding us from all sides.
Get inspired
You will learn how to build and utilize mindfulness for your personal development and in relationships with others. You will receive specific guidance and practice on how to gain greater control over your own mind, as well as approach yourself and others with more kindness and care.
Put into practice
You will learn how, despite time pressure, problems, a multitude of stimuli, tasks, and contexts, to calm your mind and bring peace to your thoughts, decision-making processes, and perception of reality. You will be able to use this knowledge in your professional and personal life, and increased mindfulness and awareness will help you better manage your team in times of chaos and change, as well as take better care of your well-being in stressful situations.
What awaits you?
Reliable Knowledge
During the workshop, its mentor will provide you with scientifically verified knowledge about how the mind works, as well as exercises. You will learn and understand the mechanisms influencing our thinking, reactions, and behaviors. You will learn how to consciously work with your mind and body to become a more aware and balanced individual, leader, and team member.
Practice
During the three online sessions with a mentor, you will participate in practical exercises and receive tips for work outside of the sessions. You will become familiar with your resources, limitations, areas for development, and learn how mindfulness can help you perceive more, distance yourself, and shape your behavior in moments of greater emotional strain.
Tools
You will learn specific exercises during the sessions in a safe and supportive environment. We will also provide you with a set of practices for daily work, which will help you continue your mindfulness practice. The course manual will also provide you with a reference point and a collection of knowledge that you can easily use in your work and personal life.
Mentor’s experience
During the session, you will benefit from the extensive experience of a mentor who works daily in a corporate environment as well as at the University of Oxford. The knowledge you will gain will be supported not only by thousands of hours of the mentor's mindfulness practice but also by research results in psychology, cognitive science, and neuroscience.
Introducing Mindfulness - Program
Session 1 - Paying Attention
The first session will contain both theoretical elements about the brain and practical exercises. We'll start with a short video activity and then talk about the importance of attention. In the next step, we will begin an exercise aimed at training our mindfulness and noticing the effort involved in focusing the mind. After this, we will move on to a group discussion and then do an exercise during which we will learn how to train attention in everyday situations. In the final part, we will consider where most of our attention usually gets distracted and learn an exercise to counteract this. The session will end with a summary and tips of what should be practiced before the next week.
Session 2 - Perspective
This session expands on and deepens what we learned previous week. We will start with a pleasant calming practice to help us start the session well. Then, we will talk about thinking and consider how much time we spend on it daily. We will deepen this topic through a music activity, followed by further explanation. Finally, you will get an extremely effective exercise that will help you broaden your perspective.
Session 3 - Responding vs. Reacting
We will start the last session with a group exercise , followed by a discussion on the differences between automatic and conscious reactions in everyday situations. We will work together on techniques that will help you take control of your learned automatisms. The session will end with a summary, reflections and next steps on the way to a more conscious life.
