Course Description
Many of us have heard that "mindfulness" can help us face life’s challenges, but rarely are we told how it works, or how to build a systematic practice that actually holds up under pressure.
Building a Praxis is designed to close that gap. In this course, you will move beyond passive relaxation and learn to develop three specific attentional skills that define the Unified Mindfulness framework:
Concentration (The ability to focus on what you choose)
Sensory Clarity (The ability to track sensory experience in real-time)
Equanimity (The ability to allow sensory experience to come and go without push or pull)
You will learn five distinct meditation techniques to cultivate these skills. This training is the key to making mindfulness useful both on and off the cushion. We are not practicing just to have a peaceful 10 minutes; we are practicing to change how we show up in our lives and our work.
Who This Is For: This course is suitable for anyone ready to build a regular mindfulness practice that supports their concrete life goals. Note: This is a skill-building course. It is not suitable for individuals looking to simply experience passive guided meditations.
Get Started Immediately: Upon signing up, you will receive immediate access to an introduction to the core technique, See Hear Feel, along with steps to launch your practice today.
Time Commitment: One hour of course attendance (live or replay) weekly plus 10 minutes of meditation per day. You can supplement that with further reading or additional practice.
Live Cohort: The live cohort will meet on Mondays at 4pm Mountain Time starting on February 2nd, walking through the practical application of theory (praxis) to build a solid, lifelong foundation of mindfulness. We will have one session per week for 8 weeks. You will be able to interact with myself and other course participants in those classes and on the Prima Materia Coaching Platform. If the time doesn't work for you, each session will be recorded and you can watch the replays.
Founders' Edition: You are the first cohort taking this course on this platform, which is why I am offering the discounted rate. While I have delivered the course elsewhere, I would greatly appreciate your feedback on your experience!
