Mindfulness Summer News and Events

I hope you are all well and enjoying the sunshine.

We are almost at the end of our spring mindfulness MBSR course. We have covered a lot of grounds so far; including recognising our autopilot mode and how to step out of it, noticing our habitual patterns, learning how to be more present, more embodied, aware of our experiences as well as learning practical tools to deal with our emotions and with life’s challenges. This week we are exploring how to look after ourselves – the first necessary step, if we wish to look after others in a more sustainable way.

If you wish to know more about any of the mindfulness courses I offer please do contact me. Meanwhile, you may be interested in some of the following mindfulness events coming up:
