SUMMARY:Mindfulness and the Science of Habit Change
DESCRIPTION:We are creatures of habit. Research shows that more than 40% of the things we do each day are not decisions but habits. In this training\, we’ll start by looking at what habits are and then tackle the ways mindfulness can help us cultivate habits of wellbeing and break habits that are holding us back. \nMindfulness is a powerful tool to help us recognize and step out of autopilot. With mindfulness we can learn to use our knowledge of habit formation to create the habits we want and let go of the habits that aren’t serving us. \nWould you like to lessen or eliminate things like constantly checking social media\, procrastinating\, overeating\, or smoking? How about beginning or strengthening habits like eating well\, meditating\, or listening deeply? This training may be for you. \nAt the conclusion of this workshop\, participants will be able to: \n\nDescribe the habit loop of positive and negative reinforcement.\nPractice mindfulness meditation.\nDiscuss BJ Fog’s ABCs of Positive Habit Change.\nExplain how mindfulness can help us step out of autopilot.\nDiscuss how mindfulness approaches can help change unhelpful habit patterns.\nBuild healthy habits into your life.\n\nScientific research has consistently demonstrated that mindfulness: \n\nReduces stress\, anxiety\, and depression.\nImproves sleep and reduces symptoms of chronic illness.\nImproves confidence and self-acceptance.\n\nTrainer: \nCarol Hendershot\, RYT 500\nCertified Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Instructor\nCo-Founder\, Grand Rapids Center for Mindfulness \nCarol has been teaching the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) since 2008 and has led hundreds of students through the program.
