Class Calendar

“During the course I found certain phrases of yours coming back to me many times outside of class. Sometimes, these took on huge significance. I think the most impactful was the simply put “Begin again” when breathing in. For me, the whole course can be wrapped up in that. At every breath we take in, there is an opportunity to start all over. Every breath. It’s the key to unstuckness. It’s very simple, and always there. Feeling the body as body, breath as breathing, we travel with everything we need all time. MBSR brought this fact to consciousness; the rest is practice. “ - D.A.
