Keen to develop the skill of mindfulness but not a fan of sitting still with your eyes closed? In this event, you'll learn about cultivating mindfulness skills through reading.
The event is led by Trish - a meditation teacher and member of the Meditation Association of Australia. She specialises in helping people look beyond traditional meditation methods when it comes to learning and practicing the skill of mindfulness.

I'm Trish and in my time outside of my 9 to 5 day job, I’m a meditation teacher.
As a meditation teacher, I'm on a mission to make mindfulness equitable and accessible to everyone.​ I advocate "equitable mindfulness" by helping people look beyond traditional meditation methods when it comes to learning and practicing the skill of mindfulness.
​
I'm particularly passionate about helping people use hands-on mindfulness techniques to switch off after work and fully engage in their personal hobbies and commitments.
