Mindfulness

An approach to life based on the understanding that "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)

Mindfulness is about being fully awake in our lives, paying attention with intention and without judgement. This accesses our own powerful inner resources for insight, transformation and healing.

Scientific research and those who have participated in our programmes report a wealth of physical and psychological benefits.

Training

Ongoing programme of a systematic and developmental process of training for professionals wanting to teach mindfulness-based approaches or to integrate them into their professional work. We deliver trainings in the North Wales area and around the UK.

Research
