Mindfulness

To be mindful is being aware of how you think and feel in each moment. We often think we are aware, however nearly half of our time is lost in thought, worrying about the past and things we can’t do anything about, or predicting a future that we haven’t even experienced yet.

This back and forth locks us into stress and anxiety. Awareness offers us a choice to be present and find peace in the here and now.

 

Mind in Salford has been running a Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction programme since 2011, with very positive results.  After attending the Mindfulness 8 week courses people have experienced dramatic reductions in their stress levels, better sleeping patterns, reduced anxiety and improved mood.

We also provide mindfulness tasters and training in workplace settings. For further information please contact team on training@mindinsalford.org.uk or call 0161 710 1070.
