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

At the start of the program I was generally feeling anxious and my confidence had taken a knock. But, now I'm so much better, & feel stronger. I took on board the breathing exercises But was specifically helped by the tips on dealing with troubling thoughts. Thank you. 

Excellent free resource.

I completed the program. It feels good knowing that I did it. I'm grateful for all the techniques I've grasped while doing these exercises. They were definitely weird at first but it brings a lil smirk to my face when I'm recognizing one of the lessons in every day things.

It’s taken me a long time to complete this program but it has been not just worth it but I have gained so much from adding the Calm App and having counselling. Thank you

I found the program made me stop and think before I got myself too stressed. I really feel the breathing exercises are helpful

Thank you very much for letting me join this mindfulness program.  It has been a kind of big life shift for me.  I had never thought of I was in the autopilot mode.  Before having this program, I didn't take care of my body and breathing. This program taught me the importance of feeling my emotions and body sensations without judgement or criticism.  Now I know how to practice and being mindfulness at all times.  Tessa and Ed, you have taught me to be gentle to myself and the others, too.  Once again, I would express my gratitude for what you are providing.  I am looking forward to continuing practice mindfulness with your way.  I would like to recommend trying to take this mindfulness program to everyone.  It was amazing my anxiety, depression, and stress level has decreased after the program.

Taking part in the Be Mindful programme has been a truly positive experience. It gave me the tools and space to slow down, make time for myself, and find a sense of calm in the midst of a busy life. The program helped me to become more aware of my thoughts and actions, and to approach everyday activities—like eating, moving, and thinking—with greater mindfulness. I now feel more present, more in control, and more compassionate towards myself. I’d really recommend it to anyone looking to reconnect with themselves and create lasting, meaningful change.

Excellent content with each session. I really enjoyed all the examples and techniques. I have incorporated the techniques into my daily life. Thank you for allowing me to do this program

Before joining this program, my anxiety levels were overwhelming, and I struggled to manage daily stress. Through the support and techniques I learned, I’ve seen a significant improvement in my ability to stay calm and in control. I now feel more confident and equipped to handle challenges. I highly recommend this program to anyone looking for effective ways to manage anxiety and improve their well-being.

I loved the program and wouldn’t be without it now. I was sceptical to begin with and I’m not going to lie some things I thought were a little weird. BUT it has changed my life and greatly improved my mental health especially helping me relax and sleep.

It’s a gentle but effective program to help handle stress and anxiety. Really enjoyed it.

I had a roommate in college years ago that would light up a candle and stare at it and try not to think of anything. That was my understanding of mindfulness and meditation. Besides a better understanding of what this is and how useful it is, I found two things powerful for me, one is that I am not my thoughts, and I can use a simple thing like mindful breathing to get out of a stressful situation or circle of negative thoughts.

"This is a program worth undertaking to better train ourselves. It helped me take charge of my emotions very well."

"I have always really struggled with anxiety and rushing around from thing to thing forgetting to stop and take a breath. This has led to me experiencing high levels of stress but this program has been amazing. It’s taught me so much about slowing down and pausing. It’s taught me to respect my body and what it needs and I am so thankful for this opportunity. Thank you for this program, for the encouragement and gentle reminders to take a breath. I have told so many people about this program and really encourage everyone to try it."

The program has been so helpful in providing me with coping strategies at times of family issues.

It was an enriching experience for me. The sessions provided valuable tools to manage stress and a deeper sense of awareness in daily life. I appreciated the structured approach, combining practical exercises with insightful guidance. The techniques I learned have already made a noticeable difference in my ability to stay present and handle challenges with better clarity. I recommend this program to anyone looking to improve their mental well-being and overall mindfulness. 

I felt the presenters to be quite robotic and I lost interest fairly quickly as starting out with multiple 30 minute sessions was too much to begin with.

This course has been my first step towards being mindful. Glad to have done it, I've found it very useful.

I think it's fair to say that it took me a long time to get through this program but I'm so glad I saw it through to the end. I made a point of getting through each stage at my own pace, even if that meant halting it for a week or two, or keep doing the exercises at one stage until I felt I was comfortable to move on to the next. Eventually I started to feel the difference and understand what I was supposed to do (they did explain, I just didn't get it for a while) and I got to the point where I really looked forward to doing even just 10 mins a day. I'm very glad I completed the program: I definitely feel calmer, more positive and more resilient. I'll be continuing with mindfulness practice going forward.

Loved the program! Very helpful and fun!
