This 8-week course is unique within the
world of mindfulness and wellbeing.
All you need to start a mindfulness
practice is 3 minutes a day!
There is a certain image with what I'm trained to teach, and this can seem inaccessible and unachievable to some, but that's why I'm here! I am passionate about what I have to offer and want to make mindfulness work for EVERYONE! My mission is to create a more mindful and happier you.
Don't worry, I won't be deep-diving into meditation, it all starts with a daily 3 Minute Upgrade® and we can grow together from there. With this 8-week course learn to implement the key principles of mindfulness in manageable moments into your everyday, real life!
By adding small moments, little by little, day by day you can become more mindful, happy, compassionate, grateful and generally improve overall wellbeing.
I love teaching the skills to living a happier and more fulfilling life and how best to introduce techniques into your life that lead to greater happiness and joy. To help you respond rather than react in situations brought on by stress, emotions or triggers. To turn off auto pilot and be more present day to day.
This course is based on the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) programme originally developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn in the 1970s. These weekly sessions will teach you the practical techniques and skills you need to be kinder to yourself and gradually rewire your brain. All teaching is inspired by world-leading experts in teaching wellbeing, mindfulness, neuroscience and positive psychology.
In turn I will help you develop your own unique happiness learning exercises for everyday life. Less worry about the past and anxious feelings about the future will bring more happiness to your life right now.
It all starts with finding 3 Minutes a day!

Half Day Retreat
as part of the In Person 8-Week Mindfulness & Self-Compassion Course
On the 8-week course I will run a half day retreat in Windsor Great Park
This will be a great chance to head into nature and Windsor Great Parks beautiful trees, ponds and woodland. We will practice different elements of mindfulness that we have learnt over the previous 7 weeks including mindful walking & meditation.
After a silent, gentle ramble I will connect you to the surrounding environment using all your senses. You will learn to embrace the full benefits of breath and meditation under the trees and within the woodland. Will we hug a tree? YES! But with Upgrade Your Day I pride myself on approaching everything
with fun, good humour and joy.
This retreat is to complement the 8-week course
but not essential to attend.
