SUMMARY:Getting Back in Charge: Mindfulness-Based Skills for People with Depression
DESCRIPTION:with Mushim Ikeda and Kitsy Schoen \nMindfulness-based practices can help put a spacer between us and the negative symptoms of depression. With that bit of breathing room\, we can begin to make small changes that\, when practiced over time\, can help manage downward mood swings and negative thinking. This introductory workshop will include mindfulness meditation with guidance\, information-packed talks\, skill-building exercises\, and a supportive community environment to get you started in these helpful practices.  \nOpen to anyone with depression.  \nRegistration: Registration is required and space is limited. Click here to register. \nCost: There is no registration fee for attending this event\, nor most EBMC events.  However\, EBMC is not independently funded. The Center and the teachers will be sustained only by your voluntary donations (the practice of generous giving\, or “dana”). Please donate generously\, in proportion to your ability: \n* Either online (you will be offered an opportunity during the online registration process to donate to EBMC; the teachers will not receive any part of this online donation).\n* Or at the event\, in the two baskets at EBMC\, one for the Center\, the second for the Teacher. \nThank you for your generosity.  EBMC will be only be sustained through our collective generosity. \nFragrance-free: In order to protect the health of community members with environmental illness\, please do not wear fragranced products (including “natural” fragrances) or clothes laundered in fragranced products to EBMC. \n  EBMC is wheelchair accessible.
