Mindfulness
What is Mindfulness?
Mindfulness means maintaining a moment by moment awareness of our feelings, thoughts, bodily sensations and surrounding environment through a gentle, nurturing lens.
Mindfulness can be expressed in many ways, it is about being in the present moment, in a non-judgemental. It brings a sense of calm to a busy life/mind when there is a need to be "right here, right now" and not dwelling over the past or racing into the future, but being aware of this moment. When we practice mindfulness, our thoughts tune into what we are sensing in the present moment, rather than rehashing the past or imagining the future.

Joan Conlan B.Ed, B.A. (Hons) NAPCP(National Assocation for Professional Counselling & Psychotherapy)
I qualified as a Mindfulness Facilitator in Scotland in 2019 after a years training in the “Mindfulness For Life” program. I have completed the SOMA (Teenage Mindfulness Facilitator Programme) in 2019 in Scotland and their Youth Mindfulness Facilitator programme for children in 2016 in the Marino Institute in Dublin.
Training as a mindfulness facilitator came from a personal need to find a sense of calm and meaning in my own life after a bereavement. I have walked the walk with mindfulness.
