Overview
Welcome to the MLO 101: Intro to Mindful Life Optimization & Mindful Living. If you are looking to improve your mental and emotional well-being and become more integrated with life and connected yourself, others and to the environment you are in the right place.
The difference between this Mindfulness course and others is that we bring mindfulness to our life in three different domains: natural systems and how they influence us, environmental wellness, and our perceptions, emotions, and actions.
It’s more than reducing stress, but learning how to live a more holistic stress-free life. You’ll learn fundamental skills in awareness of your mind/perspectives, body, and emotions, which help you grow in emotional maturity and improve your communication and create better habits.
This class discusses the four foundations of mindfulness to assist in your personal, professional, and relational development with our Mindful Life Optimization roadmap and follow-up courses to learn the pathway to effectiveness and lasting happiness.
