A Day of Practice with David Treleven and Alison Yiangou
Tuesday 3rd and Wednesday 4th September 2023
Two days of presentations and discussions focusing on mindful behaviours and complex decision making. These days will bring together the mindfulness community and those working in specific areas of challenge on a global scale. The intention is to explore the potential benefits of mindful behaviours and attitudes to key areas of global challenge. The OMF will provide space to explore how mindful behaviours and approaches can support complex decision making and how being inside your individual ‘window of tolerance’ enables you to make decisions from a more solid foundation. Areas of exploration will focus on complex decision making in terms of:
Sustainability of the planet
Times of conflict
Inclusivity
Supported by the OMF team, guest speakers and panel hosts are to be confirmed shortly
Lunch each day is included in the fee – accommodation and evening meals are not included
