The best way to get a good sense of what mindfulness has to offer is to experience it - so this evening workshop comprises a range of short mindfulness practices, together with an overview of the principles of mindfulness and a little about its origins and current applications. The evening serves as a taster for those curious about mindfulness and can help to inform decisions about whether to embark on an eight week course, which is the standard basic mindfulness training. So it can be entirely stand alone or may whet the appetite to take things further, but either way the evening gives a good sense of what mindfulness has to offer.

A retreat day provides the opportunity to ‘retreat’ in a positive sense from the hurly burly of everyday life – to experience a range of guided practices throughout the day in a safe and nurturing environment. Participants invariably find their experience of mindfulness substantially richer during these events. Much of the day is held in silence with opportunities to share at the beginning and end. 

The course is made up of eight weekly sessions. 

There is an evening course on a Monday from 7.15 to 9.30 pm

A morning course on a Wednesday from 9.45 am to 12.00 noon

Courses also have a ‘retreat day’ from 10.00 am to 4.00 pm at a weekend

Jon Kabat-Zinn established the format of the MBSR course in the '80s working with a wide range of clients, many of whom had gone beyond the help of any known medical intervention. The course is now proven to have helped tens of thousands, as well as its efficacy being substantiated through rigorous clinical trials.
