Autism Initiatives Malaysia (AIM High) invites you to a webinar on Mindfulness where we will be learning some relaxation techniques and engage in exercises to develop our awareness, to tune in to ourselves and our environment via our senses. Some exercises will be using music whilst other exercises will be in silence. These will be good strategies for when we feel stressed and need to regulate our anxieties.

Target audience: Adults with ADHD/Asperger/Autism (Level 1). Limited to 16 participants.

FACILITATOR:

Music Therapist & Music Psychotherapist, MA Music Therapy (UK), PGDip Music Therapy (UK), BA (Hons.) Jazz Popular Music (UK), Dip Child Psychology (UK),
