"After waking from a restful night’s sleep I find myself feeling easily motivated to sit and settle for my morning mindfulness practice.
After sitting for ten minutes, I feel refreshed and revitalised and enjoy my cup of tea whilst getting ready for the day.
I notice the taste of my tea, I'm aware of the scent of my shower gel in the shower, the beads of hot water bouncing off my skin.
My breakfast has more taste to it, and I feel good about starting my day in the best possible way.
My family and the people around me notice the difference. I shared the course with my husband. He's now calmer, and more resilient.
Throughout the day life presents its challenges, obstacles, twists and turns, and I find that I feel at ease, peaceful, content and fulfilled.
When it comes to spending time with those closest to me, I feel more connected".

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions:
How does the course work?
The course comes with 7 modules. Each module comes with a recorded video lesson that teaches you the topic. You then access a mindfulness practice for that module which guides you through gaining the skills for that particular module, building your resilience as you go. Each module also comes with short micro-mindfulness practices, a challenge card to motivate you through the module, and a source of inspiration which helps make it all click together. If you have any questions throughout the course, you can email me direct.
How long does the course take?
The course comes with lifetime access, so you can progress at your own speed. I recommend that you spend 5-7 days on each module, but some people take longer. You can also come back and repeat each module as often as you like. I know that some people have actually gone through the course 2-3 times.
Where do I start? Can I start with the module that interests me the most?
I would recommend that you start at module 1. The course was designed to be progressive, and it builds the necessary skills for resilience and mindfulness as you go. Module 1 teaches focus and concentration, which is needed for resilience, as well as the ability to shift focus and attention. This will make more sense as you progress and learn more.
I'm not sure if mindfulness is for me, I struggle to sit still, and when I do, I can't focus and my mind is too busy.
It sounds like your mind is doing what it was designed to do (think). Our minds are busy and some research says that we have as many as 60,000 thoughts a day. The same research shows that on average, our minds wander 47% of the time. So when you sit down and try to be still, you become aware of all of this, and just how busy our minds are. Plus, if life is busy, it will be a challenge to sit still sometimes. This course will guide you through mindfulness in new ways so that you learn how to manage all of this.
