Consciousness: Mindfulness and the medicine wheel

Presented by: Don Robinson

Workshop description:
Mindfulness was important in our Aboriginal communities and was a rite of passage for young people emerging into adulthood. Today, people are hooked into modern technology; television, computers, and cell phones, and have fast forwarded into the space age. This fast pace has become normal and addictive for many. This workshop will introduce the concept of “slowing the mind down” and realizing the power of our consciousness. Traditional teachings and ceremonial practices supporting this mindfulness skills practice will be presented.
