While our world is becoming increasingly interconnected, people report increasing anxiety, depression, and loneliness. With “Mindfulness, Dignity, and the Art of Human Connection,” you’ll explore innovative mindfulness techniques that foster a more profound understanding of dignity within yourself and others. This course provides a comprehensive understanding of the holistic mindfulness perspective, which focuses on strengthening your relationships with the self, others, and nature. It covers mindfulness from three perspectives: Buddhist psychology, critical theory, and contemplative studies. This interdisciplinary approach allows you to not only learn major aspects of the Banyan Tree mindset framework but also provides an inclusive perspective that builds a greater sense of understanding for others with diverse experiences.
