BEYOND MINDFULNESS MEDITATION

Most would agree- the path to connecting with your spiritual self is to cultivate a meditation practice. But can it be a therapeutic practice? Cassandra Joan Butler introduced meditation intervention therapy to the 

Buffalo Public School system with positive results. She expanded the basics of mindfulness meditation to fit the individual student’s needs while they were in emotional or behavioral crisis. This experience triggered her to develop four specific meditation approaches to meet the immediate needs of the hundreds of students she has taught. During this workshop you will learn her unique mindfulness meditation protocol. You will learn: 

1) The basics of traditional mindfulness meditation 

2) The four styles of mindfulness meditation based upon `learning styles’ 

3) The specific `type’ of meditator YOU are 

4) Ways to interrupt even the most difficult of emotional/behavior crisis through meditative techniques 

Whether you want to expand and deepen your existing meditation practice, or, have never meditated before this workshop is continued...

for you. The tools she will share with you are

practical and easy to apply for yourself or others.
