It is essential to convert anger into a positive force to enhance your well-being and relationships with those around you. The One-on-One program is designed to concentrate on anger management from a Mindfulness viewpoint. The program involves identifying and examining the aspects of your life that are affected by this emotional state and discovering its underlying causes, allowing you to respond more effectively. The program spans six sessions and includes a day of silence, held over four consecutive days, with both morning and afternoon sessions that combine theory, meditation, and Yin yoga practices.
Your Journey
Throughout your visit, you will be introduced to an array of mindfulness meditation techniques, including mindful eating, body scan, attention to breath meditation, and mindful walking. You will also learn practical methods to proactively address stress. In between sessions, you will have mindfulness assignments to complete, enabling you to fully integrate what you have learned and apply it for the duration of your stay.
Benefits:
The first session, “Introduction to Mindfulness,” will cover the fundamentals of Mindfulness, including its definition and application. Mindful Intelligence Algarve will facilitate a relaxed introduction to conscious eating and a formal meditation practice called Body Scan. To ensure that the practice remains consistent throughout the stay, each session will conclude with a Mindful investigation and an activity plan that can be implemented until the next session.
During the second session, “Reality Perception,” you will explore how your beliefs and assumptions shape your perception of yourself, others, and your environment, particularly in relation to anger. You will identify the most prevalent anger-related beliefs in your life, comprehend their impact on your daily life, and learn strategies to deconstruct them.
In session three, “Emotions,” you will examine the underlying message of each emotion and explore how Mindfulness can assist in managing its fluctuations. This session will equip you with the ability to identify, manage, and respond Mindfully to difficult emotional states.
During session four, “Exploring Anger,” you will delve deeper into the detrimental effects of anger on personal growth and happiness, including how it can disconnect us from ourselves and others. You will analyze the root causes of anger and examine its impact on your life, while also learning practical strategies to overcome it.
During the Day of Silence, you will engage in both informal and formal mindfulness practices, utilizing all the techniques you have learned throughout the program.
In session five, “Mindful Communication,” you will learn how to communicate Mindfully and achieve optimal results both professionally and personally, including in relationships with family, partners, and coworkers.
During the final session, “Integrating Mindfulness into Daily Life,” you will consolidate all the knowledge acquired throughout the program and formulate a plan for incorporating Mindfulness into your everyday life.
