How to Shift Your Focus

If you’ve done any exploring of mindfulness or meditation you’ve likely come across the idea that coming back to the present moment is the solution to many of your stresses. Whilst learning to be present is a helpful tool to have in your emotional wellbeing toolkit, it’s impossible to be present all the time. Plus, there are some great strengths that lie in allowing your mind to explore the future and revisit the past.

In this session we will:

• Discuss the strengths and drawbacks of your mind visiting the past
• Discuss the strengths and drawbacks of your mind being present
• Discuss the strengths and drawbacks of your mind exploring the future
• Learn how to shift your focus between each type of thinking

If you find that you get stuck in overthinking the past or over-worrying about the future then this is a great workshop for you.

Note; This is a ‘thinking’ session which means it’s primarily focused on equipping you with tools, techniques and strategies that relate to this topic. Some of these tools may be new to you, whilst others might be familiar and present an opportunity for you to re-visit them and strengthen them. After the session there will be an optional unrecorded Q&A session that you can attend.
