Learn powerful ways to reduce stress and increase wellbeing in these Mini Mindfulness for Stress Sessions.
Mindfulness is 'noticing what is happening in the moment, and making choices about how we respond, rather than being driven by our habitual reactions'. (Vidyamala Burch OBE, Founder of Breathworks).
As we develop our capacity for mindfulness, we move from automatic pilot and reactivity, to looking at our experience, both external (events and other people's behaviour) and internally (bodily sensations, emotions and thoughts) from a different perspective. This enables us to choose how we respond to life's ups and downs, and begin to do so more creatively, compassionately and wisely.
Evidence shows that this mindful approach helps relieve stress and anxiety, improve our capacity to live with pain and illness, and generally improves our mental and emotional well-being.
