Though many of us want to slow down and experience greater calm and ease, we often find that doing this is not so easy. Mindfulness is a simple practice that connects us to our natural sense of presence. Learning and practicing mindfulness helps us come to our senses in a very real way and live more fully in the present moment.

We offer an internationally recognised 8-week course which provides a practical introduction to a range of Mindfulness practices. The focus is on learning simple sitting, lying and walking meditations. There is also some group discussion.

The Course is carefully structured to support participants’ learning: there is a two-hour class each week, and one experiential all-day workshop.
