MORE THAN A MOMENT OF CALM

Deepen Your Practice with Awareness

Mindfulness helps us settle the mind and stay present. Awareness practice builds on that steadiness, inviting insight into the mind itself and the patterns that shape our experience. Mindworks courses guide you through this progression, bringing mindfulness and awareness together through meditation and contemplation.

Alice Keech – Practice Assistant

Your team and your courses have changed mine and my family’s life for the better. I am truly humbled by how we have not only weathered some challenging situations but in the course of deepening our understanding of ourselves, we have come out the other side stronger than before. Thank you for showing me how to love life again; and even more so during challenging times.

Juli – Bookkeeper

The meditation practice is very freeing. I can just be where I am in the moment. In contrast to so many practices I’ve tried, it encompasses how to deal with emotions with a greater awareness of the human condition.

Mindworks has made a big difference in my life!
