As the benefits from Mindfulness practices are becoming more widely recognised and known, there is now a real opportunity for everyone, including teachers, councellors, health workers etc., who see the value of attention training and mindfulness exercises, to start help others improve focus, mental resilience and relieve stress and anxiety.

This training will give you a resource to improve everyone’s, including adults, students and children’s ability to deal with stress and anxiety as well as developing the ability to shift attention when thoughts and feelings are becoming unhelpful.

Teaching mindfulness is about guiding people to their own mindfulness practice. It’s about co-creating an environment where mindfulness can ‘happen’.
