All teaching is delivered in a compassionate way and you are encouraged to take care of yourself as you learn and grow.  It is a secular approach, but like many mindfulness meditation practices has its roots in Buddhism.

What have previous participants said?

"I did get, and continue to get, a great deal from the Mindfulness course.  It has changed the way I respond to my thoughts and feelings and given me the tools to continue to grow and enjoy all those moments in life that often pass us by without a thought, and the ability to calm my mind and body when required. I will certainly be continuing to expand my knowledge, and I use the skills, often being presented with opportunities to use what I now know."
