Mindfulness Workshops

The workshops do not focus on problems but rather on how to recognise and break free of the unconscious habits of mind, to find a way to access peace and happiness.

We are becoming aware that we carry much more in our minds than we can in our arms. Many of us get caught up in either reliving the past or rehearsing experiences we think are yet to come, often anticipating fearful outcomes. Few of us know how to quieten our minds so we can live in – and respond to – the value of our life.

The incessant chatter of a busy mind seems to be more the norm as our lives speed up and more is expected of us each moment. We are often unaware of this chatter that with time becomes a habit. We begin to think it’s normal. Is it any wonder that depression, stress and anxiety are some of the biggest issues in Australia? Few of us know how to be truly happy or how to access peace with ourselves or our circumstances.

Whilst therapy has its place, allowing us to share our pain with someone who cares, and help us to become aware, therapy doesn’t take us far enough to break free of the habitual mind because at such times we can’t hear clearly, no matter how hard we try. For most of us these habits are built up over years of repetition.
