Mindfulness Courses
I co-teach Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) courses with author (The Mindful Manifesto) and teacher Ed Halliwell.
Mindfulness is an integrative, mind-body approach to life that helps people to relate effectively to experiences. It involves paying attention to thoughts, feelings and body sensations in a way that can increase our awareness, manage difficult experiences, and make wise choices. Though rooted in ancient traditions of meditation, mindfulness has become the subject of increasing scientific attention in recent years, as a rapidly-expanding body of research suggests it can help people manage a range of physical and mental health problems, as well as promoting well-being generally. Research has consistently shown that programmes based on mindfulness can help people reduce their levels of stress and mindfulness skills are now being used in medicine and mental health as well as in organisations, schools, prisons and government departments.
