I am currently offering the following: -
Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy
8 week Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy programme, based on the original programme devised by Jon Kabat-Zinn.
MBCT combines traditional cognitive behavioural therapy with mindfulness and meditation.
MBCT enables the participant to recognise and step out of automatic cognitive processes that can trigger stress, anxiety and depression. Participants recognise that certain thoughts and feelings are mentally destructive and are taught to allow 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.
The MBCT programme takes place over 8 weeks. There is a weekly course and practice is done outside of the class with the use of MP3′s for regular meditation and techniques to integrate mindfulness into daily routines.
Course are held regularly in Corby, Kettering and in Wellingborough, Northants. Places are limited, early booking is advised, email via the contact me page for details. You can also enjoy this course on a one to one basis via Skype or Google Hangouts, this is a more convenient option for many and gets you practicing in the comfort of your own home from day one.
Weekly Mindfulness Meditation Classes
These classes consist of a meditation, and a short discussion or reading. There will be a mindfulness task given as home practice for those who wish to integrate mindfulness into their daily lives and links to meditations will be available for those who wish to meditate at home in between sessions.
Suitable for complete beginners or anyone who wishes to continue and deepen their practiceand definately for those who want to restart their mindfulness practice having stop for any reason. Please contact me to express your interest and secure your place. These sessions can also be one to one via Skype or Google Hangouts.
Attain and Retain Peace
Attain and Retain Peace One Day Meditation Workshops. This course can also be taken via Skype over 4 weekly sessions. £85 each (includes a course manual and audio meditation recordings).
Alongside meditation techniques (incorporating periods of meditation), the sessions cover theoretical learning to enable you to understand: -
What you truly want from life.
Why we get trapped into cycles of negative thinking.
Why seemingly ‘resolved’ emotional issues can return.
How to free ourselves of judgement.
The impact of emotional stress on our physical health.
How we can learn to observe our thoughts without engaging with them.
The challenges faced trying to establish and sustain a meditation practice and how to overcome them.
“It was an absolute privilege to receive this training! Louise and Tim, we can’t thank you enough. We wholeheartedly recommend this to everyone”.
