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

I found the Mindfulness course to be very helpful in becoming mindful and starting a Mindfulness practice that's easy to implement into one's lifestyle. It's simple and practical and does not take heaps of time to do either. The content is easy to understand and focused on getting the message across in plain & simple language. The practical tools and tips shared are easy to incorporate into one's lifestyle.

A year into the Covid-19 pandemic, I was experiencing a serious resurgence of an anxiety disorder that had been kept under control since originally seeking help several years prior. Due to not being able to access help in the usual channels very easily due to the circumstances, I found this course and decided to try it out. I found the guided exercises immediately helpful in establishing a mindfulness practice that helped me cope in extremely difficult circumstances - it gave me tools that enabled me to regain some sense of control and direction in my day-to-day life that had been previously engulfed by anxiety. Upon completion, the circumstances were still extremely difficult and difficulty still lies ahead, but the course and the exercises I will continue to do have enabled me to re-establish a meaningful connection to my daily life and feel like I am better equipped to function in an uncertain world going forward.

I have found the course very helpful. It is something I have never done before but would recommend everyone trying it!

Extremely helpful. Learnt a lot about myself and the way forward.

Because the course was online, I was able to participate and practice almost every day. The videos allowed me to hear the instructors' guidance during practice, which was very useful. I found myself looking forward to my daily practice during the course.

I felt the therapists were talking to me directly which gave me confidence that someone was addressing my issues on a one to one basis. The advice and feeling of support to address issues not try to bury them enabled me to accept and work on them.

This course have help to overcome unforeseen circumstances and situation. To cope with a positive focus to adapt to bring changes in learning new ideas.

Excellent course, it has really helped my understanding of all that mindfulness is. I was going through a really stressful period when i started. By doing the course and other activities including yoga, i am feeling so much better. Thank you. Going to keep on with it all now. I really enjoyed the meditations.

Be Mindful was an easy course to follow and well presented by both Tessa and Ed. It not only demonstrated how much we miss in absorbing the pleasures and blessings in life often led by stress affecting our mood and ability to cope on a day to day. The 4 weeks were gentle and productive with tips, videos to view and practical exercises to follow. Any enquiries were responded to very quickly and the course remains available online to access afterwards. Improvements in my day to day were quick to feel and noticed too by others around me and would strongly recommend it. E. S. (full name not provided)

"This program has helped me cope through some of the most difficult times in my life, and has helped me see things in a more relaxed, rational way."

Anybody looking at my pre and post course scores could conclude that I barely benefitted from the course, but that's not the whole picture. I started the course when I was living in a very stressful situation which unfortunately deteriorated while I was completing the course. I can honestly say that without the course, I would have been in far more distress. The daily sessions were an oasis of calm and rationality which I treasured. The conclusion of the course has coincided with a much-needed change in my environment, and as I write this, I feel composed, optimistic and ready to continue to practice the techniques the course taught me. Thanks, Ed and Tessa, for getting me through and setting me up for a more positive future.

I have found this course to be most stimulating, interesting and helpful. In particular, keeping an online journal has been therapeutic. The video exercises have also been helpful.

Excellent course. Will drop the in to use resources weekly as it really has made a difference.

Thank you so much for the course! I did one of Tessa's face to face courses in London several years ago but recently felt in need of a boost as my practice had been slacking - this was perfect as it made me commit, and complete many more minutes of mindfulness than I would have alone. It has been great and I have really enjoyed it - and actually look forward to the practices each day!

Before the course I had done meditation on Headspace and also TM, but I think this mindfulness course really focused in on my stress and anxiety so that I started to realize the I needed to change how I perceived the world and that meditation on its own was not necessarily benefitting me fully. Now I feel I am starting to think differently and see the world in a clearer light. I think the course was very well structured and found the library easy to re-visit to access the recordings and listen to them. I have enjoyed it immensely as has my wife as she has seen the changes in me and how it has helped. I have now started reading the Mark Williams and Danny Pennman book on Mindfulness.

The Be Mindful course was great for a beginner like me. It made me more aware of my breathing and reminded me to pay attention to my feelings and how that makes my body feel. I will continue to be mindful everyday, be kinder to myself and develop this valuable practice. Thank you

I really enjoyed the way the course was set up, how it sent emails regularly and the videos aren't too long. I found it easy to understand and hope that I can continue to practice mindfulness in my daily life.

An excellent course, gentle and reassuring all along the way. Especially appreciated the reminders that it's OK to sometimes not feel 'mindful', and that it's OK that the mind does wander during mindful exercises. I would highly recommend the course.

I have found this course great and it has been very helpful in grounding my unpleasant thoughts and feelings. I am going to continue practicing so I can become better in using mindfulness in my everyday life Thank you

This was a really great, usefull and calming cause. I went into it feeling really overwhelmed with anxiety, and didn't really know what to expect but knew I needed help. This course gave me the space and time to learn mindfulness at my own speed, and provided me with great tools and reassurance. I think the best thing I've taken from this course is the ability to be kind to myself when it is most needed and how to move away from overanalysation which can often be scaring and unhelpful.
