CHRIST-CENTRED MINDFULNESS:
|
StillPublisher Description
In the award-winning 'Christ-Centred Mindfulness', leading academic and experienced mental health worker Dr Katherine Thompson draws on the rich Christian tradition to present Christian mindfulness exercises that help us slow down, connect to what is happening inside ourselves and make space to listen for God's guidance in everyday life. The practice of mindfulness requires us to be still. Yet many of our attempts to be still are foiled by the internal world of our emotions. This is especially the case with difficult emotions. We tend to push them aside, ignore them or distract ourselves from them. The exercises in 'Still' are designed to help us stop and notice our emotions, how they feel in our body, and how they affect us. Available Now At Koorong
