Two introductory sessions of Presence in Healing, led by physical therapist and integrative medicine practitioner Sara Pierce, will be held from 5:15 to 6:45 p.m., October 17 and November 14, at Integrative Mindfulness, in Bonita Springs.

Pierce combines her training and experience as a physical therapist, integrative health practitioner and body worker with mindfulness and movement into a unique experiential learning environment. She uses multiple body-mind modalities in movement, consciousness, touch and coaching to help patients gain a clearer perspective on life and make sustainable, long-term changes.

Those seeking to strengthen their self-awareness and capacity to heal themselves physically, energetically, emotionally or mentally will benefit from the course, which she presents nationally and internationally. Participants will learn how to decrease stress and emotional reactivity while enhancing physical awareness, self-insight, empathy and compassion. The next four-week mindfulness training session at Integrative Mindfulness begins in January 2017.

Suggested donation: $15. Location: 3372 Woods Edge Cir., Ste. 102. For more information, call Pierce at 207-266-9162, email [email protected] or visit IntegrativeMindfulness.net.
