Mindfulness Courses

This type of session gives people the opportunity to find out what mindfulness is (and isn’t), as well as the ‘whys’ and the ‘hows’ of practicing mindfulness. In addition to learning about the science underpinning why mindfulness works, participants get to experience mindfulness practices for themselves. This powerful combination is very successful and has been delivered in environments ranging from global banks to university departments.

Most introductory sessions are a preparatory to our 5 session Mindfulness is Now programme.

Working with highly respected mindfulness experts in the education sector, Mindfulness at Work offers training programmes in schools to help heads, staff, pupils and parents develop a more mindful environment both at school and beyond. Our training helps participants to:

• Learn to respond rather than react to life and embrace change more easily
• Meet and surmount the challenges and stresses that they face moment to moment
• Have a greater awareness of their own thoughts, feelings and automatic thinking
• Be completely present and aware with other people – be they students, parents, colleagues or family members
• Remain innovative, objective and focused, to create more positive outcomes

To help adults and pupils access these skills, we offer:

• Introductory Talks and Workshops (often for parents or INSET days)
• 5-week Introduction to Mindfulness Course for groups (tailored to parents/staff)
• Applied Mindfulness Workshops and 1:1s
• Mindfulness In Schools Project programmes: Paws.b, .b and .b Foundations
• 6 & 8 week group Mindfulness Courses based on Oxford University’s Mindfulness Centre course ‘Mindfulness: Finding Peace in a Frantic World’ by Mark Williams & Dr Danny Penman
• Mindful Wellness Programme
• Mindfulness-based Coaching

“I thoroughly enjoyed the course. It’s given me a new perspective to my own habits that I can reflect on. I hope to positively use the activities I have learned to gain a better understanding of ways to help me in the future. I would highly recommend them to everyone. Thank you so much.” Jackie (Year 2 Teacher)

“I loved every second of the course and have taken so much from it.  I now couldn’t imagine life without meditating and taking time out and I know I will take these skills with me through life and also reach out to people about mindfulness. I hope one day I could become a mindfulness coach too!” Abi (Year 13 Student)

“A big thank you – the course, so brilliantly lead….for the first time in a while I’m actually switching off a little from work and prioritising me.” Emma (Head of ICT)
