This Mindful Life CIC

I have been teaching Mindfulness-Based courses to diverse communities since 2014. I am a listed Mindfulness Teacher with BAMBA (British Association for Mindfulness-based Approaches). I am also a psychotherapist with diverse clinical experience in several agency settings and a member of BACP. My Mindfulness Practice: I have been meditating (patchily at first!) since I was 16 when I discovered a chant in a magazine which helped calm my exam nerves. Since then I have meditated with varying degrees of success. At first, using it only when stressed, meditation did not have a great impact. Then in 2001 I studied Yoga, Movement and Meditation in Rishikesh, India and made meditation part of a weekly practice alongside yoga. In 2006 I started learning about secular mindfulness meditation and committed to daily meditation practice. This led me to complete an MBSR course (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction), taught by Michael Chaskalson.
