Hi Ever wondered about the benefits of mindfulness? Feeling stressed and/or anxious about life and/or work? I've been training in how best to share what I've learned from meditation and mindfulness, and am in the final stages of gaining accreditation to teach the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction programme. It's an eight week course comprising of a two hour session every week (taught online via Google Meet). I already have a enough participants, but would to add a couple more to create a wider sense of group community. It's totally free (I will be charging the recommended standard rate of £220 once I'm qualified). All I ask is that you only agree to taking part if you're completely committed to turning up to each session and taking part for the duration of the course. If you'd be interested in taking part please let me know - you can find out more and sign-up on this (rather basic) page: https://lnkd.in/em3yjtG2 Cheers :-)

As a clinical psychologist, I've seen firsthand how mindfulness and relaxation strategies can transform lives and provide relief from the overwhelming symptoms of anxiety. Mindfulness is all about being present in the moment, observing your thoughts and emotions with compassion and curiosity. By anchoring yourself in the here and now, you can find a sense of stability and calm, even in the face of life's challenges. In the video, I guide you through simple yet effective mindfulness practices, such as: Mindful breathing Body scan meditation Progressive muscle relaxation Guided imagery These techniques can help you develop a greater awareness of your body, release physical tension, and promote a sense of deep relaxation. Remember, incorporating mindfulness and relaxation into your daily life is a skill that requires practice and patience. Be kind to yourself as you embark on this journey of self-discovery and healing. While these strategies can be incredibly helpful, they are not a substitute for professional treatment. If you're struggling with severe or persistent anxiety, please don't hesitate to reach out to a mental health professional for support. You are not alone in this journey. Every step you take towards self-care and inner peace is a step in the right direction.
