Being mindful means,
pausing and noticing yourself in this very moment, without judgement or evaluation.
An introduction by our mindfulness team.

How do we listen to one another? How do we choose our words? Andrea Mock's contemplation of "Two Ladies in a Café" invites us to imagine mindful communication.
Gurken (Cucumber)
"Have you ever taken the time to look at a cucumber for seven minutes?" An invitation to rediscover ordinary objects in a new light with an attitude of inner curiosity.

“If we receive help to become present mindfully … we are touched more intensely by art and at the same time make an experience of how relaxing and touching mindfulness can be.
