6 Week Beginners’ Mindfulness Courses

What is Mindfulness?

• Mindfulness is about learning to be present in the moment instead of ruminating about the past or worrying about the future.

​

• We do this by learning mindfulness techniques such as practicing mindfulness meditation.

​

• It also teaches us how to be more aware of our thoughts and emotions and to gently turn towards them - instead of avoiding them or trying to distract ourselves.

What are the benefits of Mindfulness?

• Reduce stress, anxiety & depression

​

• Make us feel better by making the “fight & flight” part of our brain less reactive

​​

• Help us to relax

​​

• Allow us to have choices about how we respond to a situation – rather than reacting to it. This will help us to have healthier relationships too!

​​

​​

• Improve our sleep

​​

• Increase our ability to focus & pay attention
