An Introduction to Mindfulness
Retreats 2025
Introducing Mindfulness
“Mindfulness” is a word which has been thrown about a lot in recent years and you may be wondering what it is all about. Or you may have a meditation practice and have heard of mindfulness but haven’t explored it yet in any depth.
This “Introduction to Mindfulness Retreat” gives you a chance to explore the basic concepts and practices of mindfulness either from your own home or during a trip to Mozambique organised by MindWise and Unique Mozambique
I will bring you on a journey into awareness, giving you the ideal opportunity to discover the essence of mindfulness, learn practice methods and find new ways to relate to your mind and body.
We will spend time learning, discussing, and experiencing mindfulness practices by coming closer to the breath, coming into the body, exploring awareness, and experiencing what it’s like to be in a mode of “being” instead of our usual day-to-day mode of busyness, “doing”, and striving.
We will learn how we can bring mindful attention to our bodies and minds with practices such as the body scan, mindful movement and sitting with the breath. We can partake in mindful walking sessions on the beach and can learn how to be in touch with the nowness of the present moment.
Explore the deepest parts of your being with this Introduction to Mindfulness retreat.
All MindWise retreats are unique and made to measure, depending on your own personal choices. Please get in touch to find out more.
