Einführung in die Achtsamkeit
Einführungs- und Informationswochenende 2012
am 18.02.2012 und 19.02.2012

Dr. Patrizia C. Collard wird Sie in die Grundlagen und den Nutzen von Achtsamkeit im Alltag einführen.

Dieses Wochenende bietet sich auch all jenen an, die bereits in die Übungen hineingeschnuppert haben und ihre Kenntnisse und Praxis vertiefen und erweitern möchten.
Am Samstag wird von 10 – 17 Uhr ein Tag stattfinden, an dem Interessierte die Grundlagen und Hintergründe der Achtsamkeitspraxis kennen lernen können, Gelegenheit für Fragen und Antworten haben und mit den Übungen in Berührung kommen können.
Am Sonntag wird von 10 – 17 Uhr ein Tag der Stille abgehalten, der diese Übungen nochmals vertieft und damit die Möglichkeit gibt, das Wesen der Achtsamkeit intensiver zu erforschen.

Dieses Wochenende ist auch geeignet für Personen, die bereits an einem 8-Wochen-Kurs oder an Übungsrunden teilgenommen haben und ihr Wissen über Achtsamkeit wieder auffrischen bzw. vertiefen möchten.

Idealerweise wird das Wochenende als Gesamtpaket besucht (Kosten: € 150.-), es ist aber auch möglich, sich nur für einen der beiden Tage anzumelden (Kosten je € 85.-). Ermäßigungen für Personen mit geringem Einkommen können auf Anfrage vereinbart werden.
Der Kursort in Wien wird in Kürze hier bekanntgegeben.
Anmeldungen sind ab sofort möglich:

Recent conference presentations

Dr. Collard organised and lectured at “Mindfulness and Well Being: from Spirituality to Neuroscience”
20th and 21st November 2009
at University of East London
About the Conference
Date: 20th and 21st November 2009
Venue: UEL Stratford Campus
Medical and psychological research and interventions have been integrating mindfulness tools since the late 1970s and to date there are more than 900 publications supporting the validity and breadth of this healing approach.
Thus one could argue that the time is ripe to look at mindfulness interventions in more detail and from a number of different viewpoints.
The conference at UEL on 20th and 21st November, 2009 aims to introduce both specialists working in healthcare, psychological and preventative care, as well as interested individuals who wish to inform themselves of cutting edge health interventions, to the field and applications of Mindfulness.

Embracing Excellence
International Conference 2008


Mindfulness Based Cognitive Coaching is a powerful new development synthesizing what at first appear to be diametrically opposed philosophies (that of Cognitive-Behavioural Coaching and Buddhism). MBCC improves personal awareness, reduces stress and creates a sense of well-being and personal fulfilment. Research also suggests it increases corporate profitability.
