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

I suffer from anxiety and stress and have recently been experiencing physical symptoms like chest pains and burning scalp. My friend recommended Mindfulness. When I first started the course, I wanted to finish it as quickly as possible so that I could get back to my life. I now understand that being mindful helps you to accept the way you feel and deal with pain and stress in a more relaxed way and it takes time and practice. Since finishing the course, I have read the mindful manifesto and other mindfulness books. I meditate for 30 minutes each day and try to be mindful when walking or working. It's really helped me overcome my anxiety and stress and deal with difficult situations. I know it will take time to feel completely 'normal' again but I'm so glad I took this course. It's really changed my life in a good way.

I have enjoyed doing the whole of this course. For me the mindful meditation has been the greatest help. I even sit in the garden sometimes, just paying attention to my breathing and listening to the birds. I bought the book to go along with this course and now I have lent it to a friend who is interest. great course

This has been a wonderful experience for me. The course itself was beautifully put together with really effective "prompts". And so gentle... I have scored higher on all counts on before and after assessments but I understand the reasons and context; difficult health, work and family issues all coincided with this course and I am truly thankful that my work with Tessa and Ed helped me through. Thank you.

Very basic, only commit if you are a real newbie, I did learn a few new bits and pieces but generally everything you learn in this course you can get from one of the many fab mindfulness books out there.

The course is simple yet thorough.

I started this 4 week course nearly 7 weeks ago!! I was rushing from one job to the next getting very little done. I couldn't sit down and read, paint, or even breath for myself. I saw this course as yet another thing to add to my big list of things to do!! But I did get the 1st week done, it took me 2 and 1/2 weeks to do but I got there I then followed the next 3 weeks in succession and every week got easier and easier. I don't how but the time just become available (well I do really). Over the last 7 weeks I found that I can do things more and more fluidly and the strange feature of spending time to save time began to occur. I would highly recommend mindfulness to anyone even if you are a highly productive at work, the question is can you use this at home?

When I started the course I was really struggling to manage my anxiety and felt stressed a lot of the time. 4 weeks later and my life is very different. I am so much more relaxed and able to cope with stressful situations at work.

I am very grateful for the course, it has helped my anxiety and depression which I am diagnosed with. The course as really helped me a very lot and I do mindfulness every day. I would love to help over people with it. 

A life changing practice.

I found this course incredibly helpful - helping me to make a really important career and lifestyle choice into the bargain

I really enjoy this time that I spent with you.

My experience of this course was excellent. This course has enabled me to devote daily practise to being mindful and it is something I am now much clearer about the benefits. Although I have meditated daily for many years this has reawakened me... my journey will now continue with more movement and regularity. Thank you.

I have found the course very useful, it has definitely helped me focus my thoughts and feelings in a positive way and also helped me overcome difficulties I was facing.

This course has really shown me how to find head space in my life once more and given me the discipline to solve problems when I am able to - not try to tackle them all of the time. I really appreciate how it is chunked down into manageable lessons so I could squeeze it into my hectic existence.

The course has really helped me to become more aware and in control of my anxieties. I recently visit a planetarium for the first time which made me feel very anxious. By using the techniques learned in this course I was able to take back some control and become fully present. I ended up really enjoying the experience rather than giving in to my anxieties and running out of the planetarium.

I have been impressed and was a bit cynical so consider that genuinely impressive. I have found the tone of voice just right and am surprised by how successful the approach and content has been. Thank you.

Taking this course online is the best thing that I have ever done for myself. I practice mindfulness each day and can't believe how more calm and relaxed I feel.

Thank you! It's been brilliant and the great thing is it won't stop :-)

I've been practising mindfulness for a year now. I read a small book about it and started, but I wanted to know more, so done this course. The videos helped massively, actually seeing someone demonstrate what to do helped me further. I've since moved on to reading Full Catastrophe Living, and feel that it is a must for anyone wishing to continue further.

I have really enjoyed this course and found the practices can be built into your day even with a newborn! I will continue to practice and have found this new way to be with my stresses and anxiety really has helped to manage step away from them and let them be,I am less overwhelmed, I recommend this course.

After reading a few books on mindfulness, I felt I needed to consolidate my practices and understanding, this was a great course to achieve this. And I was right, a well presented and communicated course.

The course is a fantastic introduction to the practice of mindfulness. I feel that it has equipped me with a resource for coping with stress and anxiety and, even in the short time it has taken me to finish the course, I have changed so much in the way I think and feel about life. Completing the course feels like starting a wonderful journey - I look forward to continuing to learn about, practice and use mindfulness every day.

This course is tremendous value for money and has had a positive impact on my life. I now incorporate the sitting meditation into my morning routine and have been regularly performing the meditation for about 6 weeks. It takes a while for the practices to take effect so persevere, but I would highly recommend the course to others. What's more, my posture has also improved which is helping to breathe better in general. Highly recommended!!
