Course Description
In an ever-changing, fast-paced world, resilience and mindfulness are two powerful tools that can help us navigate challenges, manage stress, and live more fulfilling lives.
This course is designed to help you cultivate a deeper sense of self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and personal resilience. This transformative journey, based on the scientific principles of mindfulness, will empower you with practical, hands-on skills to enhance your wellbeing, relationships, and personal and professional success.
This course is centred around a workplace environment and is designed with employees, executives and entrepreneurs in mind. However, the skills you will learn are relevant to everyday life and the course is suitable for anyone looking to increase their resilience. No previous experience of mindfulness is required.
The course is divided into seven concise modules:
Understanding Resilience: Explore the concept of resilience, why it's critical, and how mindfulness enhances it.
Developing Mindful Awareness: Learn about mindfulness, the power of the mind-body connection, and how to practice it.
Mindful Stress Management: Discover tools for managing stress, embracing present-moment awareness, and nurturing self-compassion.
Mindful Problem Solving: Develop flexible thinking, learn strategies for problem-solving, and understand experiential avoidance and acceptance.

Mindful Self-Care: Identify burnout, prioritise self-care, and develop a personal resilience plan.
Integrating Mindfulness into Everyday Life: Discover how to build a daily mindfulness practice and incorporate it into all aspects of your life.
Throughout the course, you will get the opportunity to try each of the skills using practical exercises that you can try at your desk, in the workplace, or in everyday life. By the end of the course, you will have a range of tools to manage stress and maintain productivity, even in difficult situations. Join me on this enlightening journey towards a more resilient, more mindful life.

Very great course. Instructor was clear and concise and covered a lot of material in a relatively short amount of time. Would take a course like this again.
By Penny Hoover on 6/18/2024
Yes, it was a good match for me. I'm prone to ruminating in the past and worrying about the future; this course taught me how to refocus on the present through mindfulness in order to stop ruminating and worrying.

Yes, a good reminder that I should be watching my emotions & my emotional reactions and questioning them.

A very useful course so many skills and self-control gained. Thanks, and appreciate.

Mindfulness encompasses a lot of mental and emotional well-being (at least the way it's generally used in context) so whether it's in relation to work or personal everyday life or anywhere it is an incredibly important practice. But where it becomes most useful is when there is a personal investment in being mindful, and being able to apply it on an individual level to be sure your own needs are being met. That is the hardest part as it usually takes unlearning certain ways of thinking and breaking down our own internals, which isn't easy. I think this course did a good job of trying to hit a lot of different bases by making it approachable and relatable to the mass population, and understanding that while there isn't a specific template on how to use mindfulness effectively, there are certain processes that the individual can apply and adjust based on their own needs. I thought it was very effective in that regard.
