Mindfulness practice

So to be fair, I signed up for this class before I knew that today was going to be a day full of other appointments. But I still wanted to go. The class is titled Mindfulness-Managing Stress with Present Moment Awareness. It took place at the Cancer Support Community office and I enjoyed it for the most part. Sometimes though, you just don't connect with somebody the right way, and that's how I felt about the instructor. I just didn't connect with her in a way that made me feel comfortable sharing what I would want to share in this type of situation. And part of that has to do with the fact that I stayed after the mindfulness class for her colon cancer support group. I did see that support group listed on the calendar for tonight, but the subject listed specifically for tonight didn't apply to me AND I'm not really a support group kind of person. What I'm trying to say is that I had ZERO intentions of staying. It turns out that the support group is usually just one other lady, and she joined us about 15 minutes late. I just didn't connect to them, it's that simple. And it has just been a super long day.
