A well put together course which I've already seen positive benefits from, it's a great way to start your mindfulness journey giving a solid grounding in the practice. I would have preferred an in person course rather than zoom though.

It was a lovely space and time to fully explore mindfulness and how to meditate in an accessible, gentle way. I feel enriched and enabled to take it into my daily life, to practise meditations and be more aware during the day. It has given me tools and understanding to use and and come back to with the excellent course handbook. Thoroughly recommended, course and teacher.

I really enjoyed the MBSR course with Catherine and would highly recommend it. Catherine is an experienced and knowledgeable teacher and supports students along the way. The experience has re affirmed my mediation practice and look at ways to reduce stress. Thank you Catherine!

Response: Thanks for your feedback Georgina. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the face-to-face experience in the Pixham venue.

I found Catherine explained things in an easy to understand way and was approachable to ask questions. There was a good balance of information giving, group sharing and meditations within each class. The handbook was very good and i will use it in the future. The retreat day was a really lovely addition and was interesting to experience being in silence with a group. Overall i have picked up a lot of useful information and ideas and felt a connection with all of the other people in the group.

Response: Thanks for your feedback Stef. It's good to hear you got so much from the course, and I'm glad you liked the retreat day and found the handbook useful. Well done on the level of participation and commitment you brought to the course. Best wishes, Catherine

The action of understanding our minds autopilot and how we look at things, then to start to realise that there is a way to live in the moment and develop a wider understanding of all that is around us and how we interact with it, both physically and emotionally. Mindfulness is a journey that could be life changing to assist and appreciate and become aware of our emotions and surroundings. I hope to continue the journey to explore a greater understanding of it.

Really well managed and helpful course. I have been interested in mindfulness for a while, but the course really gave me a deeper understanding. Catherine is a great facilitator, she is such a good listener, encouraging and supportive. I would highly recommend.

Excellent course very informative and well structured. Plenty of time to reflect and practise what you’ve learnt. Is quite a commitment so would suggest making sure its the right time for you!

A really fab course, thank you Catherine! I wasn’t sure I’d enjoy the online version but I thought it was so well done. Everyone had an opportunity to speak if they wished to and no one person ever dominated; it was extremely well managed. Loved having the paper booklet too as it gave me a focus each week. So glad I was able to participate in the ‘in person’ retreat day and despite my anxieties about it maybe being too long for me, it whizzed by and was thoroughly enjoyable. I really do feel I have the tools to help me now and definitely look forward to a much calmer and hopefully relaxed, me! Thank you.
