“Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way; On purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgementally.” Jon Kabat-Zinn
Do you feel there is something missing in your life? Do you keep repeating patterns that cause you emotional or physical distress? Do you suffer with chronic pain? Do you feel anxious or depressed? Do you have a substance addiction? Do you let limiting, negative beliefs stop you cultivating the life you want? Are you unable to move forward but don’t quite know why? Do you have physical symptoms with no obvious cause? Can you control your thoughts or do your thoughts control you?
Change your thoughts – change your life
Learning mindfulness enables you to recognise and step out of automatic cognitive processes that can trigger stress, anxiety and depression. Recognising that certain thoughts and feelings are mentally destructive allows the mind to move from automatic thought patterns to conscious emotional processing.
Scientific research supports the effectiveness of mindfulness for reducing depressive relapses, reducing cravings for substances people are addicted to, combating stress and being an effective tool for managing chronic pain and health conditions.
Holding onto negative emotions such as anger, sadness, fear, guilt, hurt and grief places us under undue emotional stress which, over time, may lead to physical conditions or an unhealthy mental state. To increase health it is important to reduce stress. Therefore it is imperative that we learn to change our relationship with our mind to not only facilitate healing but also as a preventative measure against future ill health.
Through mindfulness we can help you make peace with your past, cope with chronic health conditions and pain, combat depression and anxiety, control negative thought patterns, break addictions and move forward with a positive and peaceful mind, whatever your current life circumstances; resulting in enhanced physical health and mental well-being.
