The classes will take place at Megan's practice which is located in the Lyndon neighborhood at 503 Washburn Avenue, Suite 201B, in Louisville, KY.When she isn't teaching entire cities how to practice and apply mindfulness to day-to-day life, Megan Bartley is busy providing one-on-one and couples therapy sessions in her private practice - Louisville Relationship Therapy. She focuses on helping clients who feel stuck in old patterns of thinking, feeling, and acting that are no longer working for them become more mindful of these patterns and ultimately learn to develop new patterns that work. Megan loves helping people be successful and have great relationships with themselves and with others. Megan aims to achieve effective communication, connection, and understanding with every client, using the same mindfulness practices that she teaches in her classes. Megan also offers mindfulness and mediation videos through her YouTube Channel.
Mindfulness is the study of becoming aware of the present moment and bringing your attention to what is going on in your mind and your body in each moment. This awareness gives you the power to choose what to do with your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors as they present themselves as well as what to do with the stress and negativity in your life. If you find that you struggle with stress and anxiety, or you become easily irritated or frustrated, then mindfulness could be a very beneficial and empowering practice for you. Through Megan's classes, you can expect to learn easy and practical ways to achieve mindfulness and to cope much more effectively with the ups and downs of daily life.
In response to interest and demand, Megan is offering a 6-week class series titled "Mindfulness for Anxiety & Dealing with Difficult People" starting November 9 and going through December 21. Some topics that will be covered include:
The drop-in rate for classes is $20, or you can register through Megan's website to attend all 6 classes at a discounted rate of $15/class which comes out to a total of $90. For additional information about Megan, her specialties, and her Mindfulness classes, you can visit MeganBaylesBartley.com.
