Mindfulness for individuals
Managing stress & anxiety levels, slowing down in life, having a better understanding of themselves and enhancing their enjoyment of life are some of the many reasons why more and more people are signing up to Mindfulness courses.
Jon Kabat-Zinn, a scientist, writer and meditation teacher wrote, 'Make sure you weave your parachute every day, rather than leave it to the time you have to jump out of the plane'. Even if we are not experiencing a difficult time in your life, it is good to be prepared! No matter our circumstances in life - being it work, relationships, family or self struggle it is inevitable that we will face difficulties at some point in our lives.
I have really enjoyed taking my attention to my breath, it really helps me to slow down & pause.
