We're proud of everyone who's completed the Be Mindful program and achieved lasting life-changing results

Well worth doing as long as you practice what is taught. Found it useful and helpful and am now more balanced. Love the presentation style and how it keep you engaged. Highly recommend it.

I have thoroughly enjoyed every element of this course and continue to incorporate the principals I have learned daily, in both my formal and informal practices. I had no previous experience of the mindfulness discipline before embarking on this course and was unsure as to whether or not it was something I could engage with , so I approached with an open mind. I am very glad I enrolled! I would highly recommend this course, as I have found the guidance invaluable in helping me to achieve a sense of calm and balance and to reflect upon changes I can make to slow things down and be present throughout the day. It has also provided me with tools to respond to the stresses of daily life in a more measured and compassionate manner. As a consequence, I feel enabled to interact with others -(particularly in any difficult circumstances which might arise)-with greater integrity and equanimity, rather than allowing 'auto-pilot' responses, acquired unwittingly, to dominate . When I began , I did not realise just how beneficial this course would prove to be . For me , it is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to the practise of mindfulness .

I have learnt really good mindful techniques and have been practicing them ever since. It makes you learn a lot about yourself, your breathing, your sensations, and ways to focus on yourself internally as well as externally. I found this course helpful, pleasant, and always relaxing.

I really enjoyed this course. I had started by reading about the subject but still did't feel confident to join a face to face practice group. This online option had the right mix of video / audio and questions, it enabled me to progress with my mindfulness journey at my own pace.

Thank you so much for this helpful course. I found it straightforward to take, website easy to work with, and I now feel much more at ease, especially in this Covid environment!

Very well structured and thought provoking course that made me much more aware of my thinking and behaviour in relation to stress and anxiety and also how to use simple mindfulness techniques for this. A very valuable course, highly recommended as effective introduction to mindfulness that can be used in everyday life as well as the workplace. Thank you.

I have really enjoyed learning techniques that have helped me to 'live in the moment' and relax. I have found the body scan particularly useful in bed when I have had trouble sleeping, it is a good form of meditation. Tessa and Ed are great teachers, they have lovely calming voices and provided excellent videos which I found really useful. Now I am on my mindfulness journey I intend to continue. Thanks a lot. 

The main thing I think is practice -the more you put in to it the more you get out of it. It's a great set of tools to have in your mind but like all tools they have to be oiled and sharpened. A very positive experience,I have gained a lot from the Be Mindful course. Many thanks Tessa, Ed and the team. 

Working through the course at a steady pace was very useful. The exercises and practices were gentle and gave valuable minutes of calmness. I would recommend anyone to give this a go, what have you got to lose?

Was very helpful indeed

This course has taught me a lot about myself and how to control my stress levels. It doesn’t always work but like anything the more you practice the better things get. My anxiety levels have dropped slightly but over time I’m convinced this will get better. It is brilliant that you can do the course in your own time and not feel forced to rush through it. The video instructions are so easy to follow and the best thing is you can always look back on your library to remind you of the different exercises. Thank you so much.

5 star experience and it was free!

I started the course when I was suffering with long term effects of COVID - my physical symptoms were worsened by overwhelming anxiety. The course helped me to face the challenge of returning to my normal activities and I feel strengthened by knowing techniques that I can call on when needed.

Great programme with lots of ideas and ways to become more mindful, really enjoyed it. Takes a bit of effort to keep up with it but I thought most exercises were really helpful.

The course pace was just right with lots of thoughtful tips and advice. I found it really useful and hope I can practice the techniques in the future.

Course was useful and paced well. Thank you. My levels of stress and anxiety are decreasing by the day.

This course really made a very positive difference.

Down to earth course, easy to follow.

Excellent course - the exercises can be done easily and anywhere. Really helped to reset things and focus on the now...

Practical, encouraging, doable, effective. Four qualities that shone out of the Be Mindful online programme and left me thinking it was well organised, well resourced and something that could be practised in its different forms whenever and wherever I wanted. The two tutors were calm, focused and supportive. and really knew their subject. I'd recommend the programme as a great template for de-stressing from today's wide range of pressures at home and at work. RD 13/7/20

I have been going through a very difficult time dealing with my husband who is not accepting that he has Dementia. I am his full time carer and have not been giving myself any time to look after myself. So much so, that I was overwhelmed by the situation and finding it difficult to cope. I'm so pleased that I took the time to spend on myself and have learnt some valuable lessons.

I really enjoyed this course, over the month i have looked forward to the next session, and with every session i have completed i have felt relaxed, it has taught me a lot about being mindful and the techinques to use have been excellent, i will continue to visit the library.
