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

It is very reassuring to do the course and results can be immediate after the practice. The course is a great taster to the benefits of taking time out every day to foster a greater sense of self-awareness in order to attune to a more balanced state of being and equilibrium. The tool of the three-minute breathing space is useful to practice on the tube and other external everyday stressful situations. I would definitely recommend this intro course to anyone who is looking for ways of becoming less over-reactive and more in touch with their inner responses of body, emotions and mind.

A brilliant online course, delivered in a professional yet personal way. It has given me plenty of strategies for how to become more mindful in my day to day life, and as always, practice makes perfect. I really do see this as the beginning of a journey and not a quick fix, but it's a journey that will always be interesting, and no doubt ultimately rewarding so long as I continue with it. I look forward to the mindful mindset becoming more second nature to me as I go from beginner to intermediate and beyond. Thanks to Ed and Tessa for getting me 'out of the blocks'.

I cannot believe the difference that Be Mindful has made to my life. I am so much calmer and happier - my family has noticed the difference too. Thank you!

The course has helped me to be kinder to myself. It has also helped me to stop and focus on something else (breathing) which I can do anywhere and which has helped me to become less stressed. Thank you.

I stumbled across this online course while studying for a professional qualification which, along with life's other day-to-day stresses, seemed to be adding to a mountain I was trying to scale daily. It felt as if I was looking up at an avalanche with rocks pouring down on top of me. I was struggling to hold everything together. While managing to do so just about in my work, at home I didn't want to wake up and continue with the 'effort' of living. This course has changed all that. I started off with a stress score of 31 and am now at 8. Since starting the course I've had some unusually stressful incidents happen and family and friends have commented on my 'unusual' response to these - taking them in my stride. This course isn't a panacea - it requires some effort to practise daily, without beating yourself up when sometimes it doesn't happen. But, when you get into the habit of daily practice, it's well worth it.

Before commencing this course I felt stressed and depressed, and did not know how to pull myself out of feeling that way. Completing this course has given me a sense of hope, positivity and a practical means of helping myself. By following the exercises and using the sessions fully, I feel I now have the tools I need to reduce my levels of depression, reduce the daily stress of work, and start to feel and enjoy the positive parts of my life. I would recommend this course to anyone who feels they are pulled down by the daily grind, but wants to take back control!

I did this course as I am a GP and had a taster of mindfulness on a postgraduate course. I felt that only by experiencing it for myself could I recommend it to others. I have found it inspirational and am now recommending it to many of my patients

Because I suffer from a pain condition which limits my mobility I was very happy when I found an online option to do something I really believe in and that has helped me enormously. The way the course was planned was easy to follow and to stick to with all the audio and other resources provided.

I was a wreck before I started the course. Becoming mindful helped me to cope with all the stresses of daily life and I now feel like a different person. I know I have more to do and realise this is something I have to do for the rest of my life.

I have enjoyed the course with Ed and Tess who were there every step of the way to give helpful hints and tips and clear explanations of the importance of Being Mindful. I will keep with the programme from now on and have already considered the benefits to me and I have reported these to my neurologist who has commended it and the course directors.

I'd been practising mindfulness techniques in a fairly haphazard and unfocused way prior to starting the course. The structure that the course provides gave me the additional incentive to practice more regularly and thus I felt the benefits more readily. The opportunities for reflection are useful tools for staying engaged. This in turn allowed me the space to adapt mindfulness practice to a range of situations I hadn't previously considered, such as driving, shopping, doing homework with kids. I've found that my worries, doubts, fears, etc shrink to manageable proportions when I practise regularly. This gives me the space to breathe and think. If you're wondering whether to part with £60 to do this course I'd say only one thing: it could save your sense of self-worth, your relationship, and possibly even your life, and those things are worth a lot more. Thanks.

Sceptical to start with, stuck with it, use the techniques and gain the benefit, cant stop telling everyone how good the course has been for me. Thank you.

I found the Be Mindful Online course helpful and beneficial and was quite sad when it finished and the virtual Tessa and Ed said goodbye. I am looking forward to carrying on the good work.

I have gained so much from this course. I never realised how much of my time I spent stressing and worrying! my life was passing me by! I am so much more relaxed and best of all I look at the world differently and appreciate things a lot more. Was one of the best things I have ever done.

Really goes at a manageable pace, not adding extra duties to your day. Easy to follow instructions, what a help.

I enjoyed the experience of doing this course, from both a personal and professional perspective. I have a much deeper understanding of Mindfulness. I found that applying these principles in my daily life had a positive and pervasive effect. I look forward to practising being mindful.

Just after starting this course my father died and I had to postpone as I had so much going on, however the support team were understanding and helpful and enabled me to pick it up at a later date. Tess and Ed have given me very important life messages and tips on how to reduce stress and negative thinking that I wish I had known about years ago. Thank you, this has been a life changing experience.

I would say that this is probably the best £60 I've ever spent and really a small monetary investment for the lifetime benefit and investing in better mental health is like washing my mind every day just as I would wash my body.

This course has been really helpful, I found it very practical and appreciate the way it encourages you to be kind and gentle with yourself - I tend to be very hard on myself, so I am trying not to be. I need to keep practising the techniques and meditations so that they become completely second nature, but this is already starting to happen and I've learned some really helpful responses to stressful situations, rather than just getting trapped in stress. Thank you.

This course made me stop and think about me and ways in which staying calm would help me help those around me. I have a long way to go - but do feel that I have started to make mindfulness a part of my coping strategies.

A really simple but effective online course, which works seamlessly. Each video and resource is deeply thought through to help keep interest and motivation. The activities are also interesting and fun, and whilst you are encouraged to do the course within the four weeks, there is no pressure to do so, and so it can easily be completed when you have the time.

I was recommended to do this course by my GP. I had just crashed at work, burnt out, over-stretched and over-stressed. Coudln't stop crying after a meeting that though difficult, was nothing that should have caused such a reaction. I was a little sceptical at first (listening to a raisin?) and didn't really see how this would help me deal with work. However, the more I carried on with the course, the more I saw how mindfulness practices could help me deal with stresses and strains and help me change habits and approaches at work and life in general that I had fallen into that weren't helpful. It was a surprise to realise how little I looked after myself, how everyhting had turned into a chore to be done. No wonder i stressed out. At the start of the course my stress score was 32/40, at the end, 16/40. Part of that improvement may be just not being at work. However, I think the course has really helped no end, and given me some tools to deal with life and work and started me on a new road. It's not always easy, but don't give up!

Doing this online mindfulness course alongside talking therapy are the best things I've ever done for myself. Everybody would benefit from learning mindfulness but I was sceptic about taking a course online. But this online course is really well thought trough and executed. It is clear and simple but feels personal and tender too.

Excellent. I have never been able to engage 'properly' with meditation before but have always known that my brain needs slowing down and calming. More recently I've been diagnosed with CFS/ME and attend a specialist Fatigue Clinic. This was what led me to look around on the internet and discover this course. Since starting it I took a look at another online course and attended a taster in my local area; neither, sadly, were anywhere as good as this course has been - it is so well explained, so compassionately presented without being in any way patronizing, and I really found it so helpful to be reminded that we're not striving for some kind of perfection. So thank you. Together with the insights and help I get from my fatigue specialists, you have helped me transform my life within only two months - from a time when I had a normally-functioning day with good energy about once every two months to now, when I perhaps have a slow, tired day once a week but otherwise have found how to break up my day and, through mindfulness, just come back down to earth, quieten all the unnecessary noise in my head and actually enjoy some really simple things in my daily life. It has been incredibly positive. Thank you.

I can honestly say that doing the Be Mindful Online Course has changed my life!! I have gained a whole new perspective into how i deal with stressful situations especially, but have also gained a more peaceful persona. Thankyou so very much. I am recomending this to friends and family, it's the best £60 i have spent in a long time. Well worth every penny!
