Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Evening Course

Learning mindfulness shows how paying attention to your experience in a non-judgemental way can help you to face stressful situations with increased confidence.

Our courses are led by Ruchiraketu who has over 40 years' experience of teaching meditation. He holds an MA degree in Mindfulness Based Approaches and teaches on the Masters programme at Bangor university.

The first session of your Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction course is a no-obligation introductory session, where you will find out all about the course. Following the introductory session, you will be invited to a follow-up one-to-one online consultation with the tutor to discuss whether the course is suitable for you at this time. Please note that both the introductory session and the follow-up consultation are prerequisites for attending the course, including those on the waiting list. Should the course not be suitable for you at this time, a refund of your booking will be made, minus our £5 booking fee.

Over the following eight weeks, you will be provided with audio recordings to guide the home meditation practices and you will be provided with a printed handbook for the course.

The course also includes a practice day on Saturday 15th March, 10am - 4pm, to help you to consolidate what you have learned and further experience the benefit of the supportive environment of the class. There will be a break for half term on 19th February

Participants are often surprised by the transformative effects of mindfulness practice and report key improvements in their lives. They also remark on the warm and supportive atmosphere of the course.

If you are on the waiting list, please attend the first session. Spaces may then become available, following the one-to-one sessions.
