Mindfulness and Gospel

Dialogue and Promises
Ivan MARCIL, MA
When: Sunday, September 24, 2023, 5 pm (Paris) / 11 am (Montreal) 
Where: Live videoconference from Quebec, Canada
Cost: Voluntary contribution
The practice of mindfulness is becoming increasingly popular in the West, as a response to the abundance of stress. Originating in Buddhism, Jon Kabat-Zinn has secularized it to make it accessible to the greatest number of people for therapeutic purposes. Its effectiveness has been demonstrated in many areas, both physical and psychological. 

But this wisdom of life can also be found in the great spiritual currents. How can we define it in relation to these currents? How can we understand its possible aberrations? What are its limits and promises? 

This conference is designed for Christians to see mindfulness as an opportunity, and for non-Christians to discover in Jesus of Nazareth a master of mindfulness.​
