My Approach

A past student describes this course this way:

“Introducing Mindfulness was an enriching experience and has given me inspiration I’ve been experimenting with ever since. As a newcomer to the ideas, I arrived feeling a bit intimidated but was instantly put at ease by the Lorilee’s approach. On signing-up I was mostly looking at starting points for dealing with the challenge, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I gained around embracing the positive.”

Each of the sessions will include guided mindfulness practices and exercises. These are followed by a discussion about any learning that can be drawn from the experience.

Between each session, you’ll be invited to continue to do some ‘personal practice’ each day – usually for a total of 15-20 minutes. This includes following recordings of guided mindfulness practices and bringing mindfulness into your everyday experiences.

You will have access to guided practices and written material to support your learning from each session.
