8-Week Mindfulness Based Living Course

8-Week Mindfulness Based Living Course

Are you looking for change? Have you had enough of your mind running the show? Can you see how your mind sabotages you but you don’t know how to be any other way? Are you looking to feel happier, calmer, less stressed and generally more balanced emotionally and mentally? If that’s a HELL YES  then I cant wait to introduce you to this course. Mindfulness has a proven track record in re-wiring the mind for change; and this Mindfulness Based Living course content has been expertly put together by the Mindfulness Association and is based on the University of Aberdeen’s MSc Studies in Mindfulness Curriculum. 

I see and hear the life-changing results that this course has had for the  Participants, from being less reactive in home/work/life situations, to taking control back in their lives.

I have trained with the Mindfulness Association to teach the 8-week MBLC so you can rest in the knowledge that you are supported by a fully trained teacher who is aware of trauma sensitivity within the practice and fully embodies mindfulness. If you are struggling with your overthinking mind, maybe feelings of anxiety, fear, depressive episodes, or ruminating over past events, worrying about the future, or you feel a sense of dissatisfaction in your life, or maybe you have practiced mindfulness on your own via an app but want to dive a little deeper, then this course is a must for you.

Below, are just some of the benefits that participants have reported, as a result of completing the course:

  • Feeling more relaxed calm and content
  • A reduction in anxiety and depressive episodes
  • Improved sleep 
  • A better handling of the overthinking mind
  • Improved concentration
  • Enjoying the present moment
  • Less reactive and angry
  • Feeling more grateful for life and the everyday things
  • Deeper understanding into why their mind is the way it is and where that stems from. 

This is an experiential course. The main emphasis is on mindfulness meditation practices and reflection exercises. The sessions are run on a weekly basis, for a duration of 2hrs you can opt for a group course or a 1-1 personal course. Please note there is homework in the form of mindfulness practices that participants would need to commit to (change only happens from putting the work in, there is no quick fix).

8-Week Compassion Based Living Course

8-Week Compassion Based Living Course

It’s often been said that Mindfulness and Compassion are two wings of a bird. You cannot have one without the other. This is especially true in times of difficulty.

The 8-week Compassion Based Living Course is a follow on from the 8-week Mindfulness Based Living Course. It supports further development of our self- compassion and compassion for others and in my own experience has improved the relationship I have with myself and those around me.

The course explores cultivating self-compassion and learning a new way of relating to ourselves. Instead of meeting our imperfections and challenges with self-blame or criticism, we learn to become more accepting and kind to ourselves, even in difficult situations. This is developed through a range of guided mindfulness practices, which encourage us to strengthen qualities, including kindness to ourselves and resilience.

Throughout the 8 weeks, you will access a range of guided mindfulness practices and teachings. Some of the topics we will be investigating are:

  • Why practice compassion?
  • The Compassionate Mess
  • It is not our fault – an evolutionary perspective
  • Creating conditions of safeness
  • Befriending the self-critic
  • Finding the compassionate friend within
  • The Four Compassionate Qualities
  • Widening the circle of compassion

Cost for the 8- week group course is £185

Cost for the 8-week 1-1 course is £275 (payment is requested upon booking, instalment are an option)

In person sessions are held in the beautiful mindfulness space pod based in North Walsham Norfolk or for those wanting to work with me outside of the area your course can be held via the zoom platform online.
