Why take a Mindfulness Course?

Previous participants have described taking a Mindfulness course as truly life changing and often find the course has subtle but fundamental on-going effects on their lives, often in unexpected ways. There is now a growing body of research highlighting the positive effects of taking a Mindfulness course and developing a regular mindfulness practice.

Research indicates that taking a Mindfulness Course offers numerous physical and psychological benefits including improvements in:

stress, anxiety & worry
low mood, feelings of hopelessness or depression (particularly recurrent depression)
attention & concentration
creativity & vitality
self-esteem & relationships
regulation of blood pressure
difficulties relaxing or sleeping
immune function & pain management
general enjoyment of life
