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.
