For Self-Awareness, Mindfulness, and Wellness

Certainly, the mind and body are as intertwined as they are complex. It is a system with profound potential that, unfortunately, often goes avoided or underdeveloped because this complexity can seem intimidating or even unpleasant. In truth, your body is always in the process of growing and healing itself, and your mind is always trying to serve your health and happiness. But it can be difficult to remember this if we don’t take the time to get familiar and comfortable with the particular (and often, odd!) ways our mind and body communicate with us. Many DSDS seminars work to make you aware of these important processes and fluent in the mind’s language of image and imagination. When we become more familiar with and less intimidated by the vivid and powerful way our minds work, we can discover great insight into our physical and emotional health. This self-awareness then often brings a calmer sense of self and more happiness. But, just as in yoga or meditation, these skills require mindfulness and practice.
