Mindfulness
About
Mindfulness is completely secular and accessible to everyone. It involves simple guided meditations, mindful movement, breath awareness and self-reflection practices.
Benefits of mindfulness are:
increased awareness of self;
increased feeling of connection;
a greater resilience to stress;
improved health and well-being;
tools to manage chronic pain;
more likely to feel happy and content.
Mindfulness is the basis of yoga, meditation & the Alexander Technique, and has been part of my daily life for over 30 years. It helps with all activities and at all levels; mental, physical and emotional, particularly in challenging times. It has personally helped me in the following ways:
reducing the chronic pain of a herniated disc and frozen shoulder;
coping with divorce and being a single parent;
navigating menopause and embracing this stage of life;
finding gratitude and inner peace in a turbulant world.
In 2017 I completed a professional training with MindfulnessUK, which is recognised by the British government.
