"The present is the only time that any of us have to be alive - to know anything - to perceive - to learn - to act - to change - to heal" (Kabat-Zinn 1990)

Sign up for the 6 week Mindfulness course to:
  • Boost your attention & concentration
  • Gain insight to your emotions and improve your relationships
  • Become more aware of your thoughts and feelings and learn to manage them better
  • Learn practical skills helping to overcome life challenges
  • Change the way you think about experiences & reduce stress and anxiety

Mindfulness-based approach, often associated with Buddhism, Tai Chi or yoga, teaches practical skills helping to overcome life challenges.

It integrates meditative practices of bringing attention to the breath and the body during stillness and movement with current psychological understanding and knowledge.

This course is not counselling or therapy.

Mindfulness is based on the work of Jon Kabat-Zinn from the Centre for Mindfulness Medicine and Research at the University of Massachusetts.
