Mindfulness – an introduction
Mindfulness is a practical technique for developing a greater sense of awareness and focus on the present moment. It is the opposite of mindlessness, meaning that actions and reactions become conscious and deliberate. It is an extremely useful tool for any busy work environment.
Currently being used by the likes of Google and Pepsi, mindfulness can be adopted within the workplace to reduce stress and anxiety, provide greater focus and clarity, improve leadership capabilities and enhance the general wellbeing of staff at all levels. This workshop has been developed for forward-thinking organisations wanting to make a real and sustainable commitment to improving workplace wellbeing and productivity.

‘The introduction to mindfulness was engaging, eye-opening and allowed each person to come away with some practical tools to implement in their daily lives, no matter where they were on their journey in mindfulness. It gave us an opportunity to take some time out as a team during a very busy period, to reconnect and to have a sense of renewed energy and motivation.
‘Rosie was an excellent trainer and facilitator, making everyone feel at ease to share their thoughts. I would highly recommend this course to any company that wants to ensure they have a cohesive, effective and healthy team.’ Joanna Deagle, CEO, Cafe Football
