Mindfulness is an evidence-based practice, with proven benefits for your wellbeing
“The research tells us that practising mindfulness does have some benefits for mental health wellbeing and for managing depression and anxiety.” — Dr Grant Blashki GP – Beyond Blue Australia
Reduced overthinking and anxiety
Mindfulness helps you to regulate your nervous system. When your nervous system is regulated your experience less anxiety, your mind calms down and overthinking stops.
Better sleep.
Experience better sleep with mindfulness meditation. The more relaxed we become, the easier it is to sleep.
Greater self-acceptance and self-love.
Mindfulness helps us realise we are perfectly OK just as we are, right here and right now.
Healthier relationships through reduced reactivity.
Rather than getting lost in a ‘fight or flight’ response when we feel annoyed, angry or threatened in our relationships, we have the tools to respond, rather than react.
Greater feelings of joy and freedom.
Mindfulness and meditation allows us to experience natural feelings of joy, calm and freedom.
Increased self-awareness and emotional intelligence.
Develop the wisdom and emotional intelligence to navigate life’s challenges in an easier, simpler and more rewarding way.
“Since doing this course, I have been sleeping much better, I feel much more in control of my emotions, I have enjoyed ‘noticing’ my own state, but also it has transferred to everything around. This means I am re-enjoying many things that I had been taking for granted.” — Sandy Good
Why choose this mindfulness and meditation course?

Kirti Dube
Kirti is a devoted Vipassana and MBSR practitioner. She was introduced to meditation at the age of 10 by her grandfather who was a dedicated yoga practitioner in India. Since then, she’s had a strong inclination towards working on self through various techniques of meditation. Her fondness for meditation took the form of regular committed practice. It became a way of living for her a few years ago when she used alternative therapy and meditation to avoid surgery and cure her chronic medical condition. She has firsthand experience of what can be achieved in personal health and in life with meditation and mindfulness.
