The One-on-One program is intended to give you the opportunity to learn, practice, and unwind through an Introduction to mindfulness. By participating in this program, you can expect a revitalization of both your body and mind.
Over the course of 2 consecutive days, you will attend 4 sessions in the morning and afternoon. These sessions will include a combination of theory, meditation, and Yin yoga practices.
Throughout your time in the program, you will acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to effectively implement mindfulness-based tools. These tools have been clinically proven to assist in the management of your personal and professional life, as well as your overall health. This newfound ability to proactively and independently manage your well-being will be a valuable asset.
Your Journey
Throughout each session, you will gain access to a variety of techniques designed to help you minimize stress caused by negative thoughts and improve your communication skills to enhance your relationships.
Upon completion of the program, Mindful Intelligence Algarve will provide guidance as you create a well-defined and targeted plan to incorporate all of the acquired knowledge. This will enable you to navigate life’s joys and challenges with adaptability, self-regulation, and self-care.
Benefits:
During Session 1, you will receive an introduction to the concept of mindfulness. This will include instruction in mindful eating techniques as well as the body-scan method. To ensure your active participation and full immersion in the program, each session concludes with mindfulness assignments for you to practice until the next session.
In Session 2, you will discover the potency of emotions by developing an awareness of their true nature. You will uncover the underlying message behind each emotion, gain insight into the significant influence they have on your actions and interactions with your environment, and enhance your ability to remain focused in the midst of daily challenges.
During Session 3, the focus will be on mindful communication. This will involve practicing active listening techniques and exploring three distinct types of communication. By learning to communicate mindfully, you will be able to transform challenging situations and cultivate stronger relationships.
In Session 4, you will receive guidance as you design a targeted and well-defined plan to incorporate all of the knowledge and mindfulness practices you have acquired throughout the program. This will enable you to integrate these techniques into your daily routine, helping you achieve your immediate goals and plan for future objectives.
