In Session Four, we focus on the ways that mindfulness for the self can affect our connections, reactions, and relationships with others.
In this video, a mindfulness researcher and a social practice artist share with you their thoughts on our connections with other people and the ways that mindfulness and art experiences, like the ones they describe, can affect those connections. Christopher Reina’s research focuses on the intersection of leadership, mindfulness, and emotions in the workplace. John Freyer’s art practice brings people together for distraction free conversations, in “Free Ice Water”, and his belief in the healing power of experiences that create these kind of human connections. In this final session of Artfulness, we hope to turn our attention to the ways we impact those around us.
In this breathing exercise, Patricia Kinser leads us in a relaxation exercise that focuses on the heat and energy felt in connecting fingertips, palms, and beyond.
In this guided meditation, we are soothingly led into an opening of our senses that bring the outside world in, through hearing the sounds around you and thinking of the essence of scents, all bringing us into a greater awareness of the present moment.
