Do you have a busy mind that it feels impossible to switch off?
Are you dealing with feelings of chronic stress & burn out?
Do you often feel emotionally exhausted and completely cared out?
Do you struggle to be kind to yourself?
I know that mastering mindfulness and integrating it into your life can be hard.
Perhaps you've tried to learn about it before but didn't really feel it would work for you and your life?
Perhaps you've even done other trainings but haven't been able to sustain it?
I get it. I was a General Practitioner who taught mindfulness and I still lived unmindfully and eventually burnt myself out. I did that because without self compassion, actually living mindfully in this switched on world is really difficult. Our busy minds often finding it difficult to filter out the noise and come into a state of rest & stillness.
Learning mindfulness in this environment is tough.
Living mindfully in this busy, hectic, modern world takes more than listening to a few guided meditations.
Having learnt these tough lessons for myself, I now teach mindfulness very differently to how I did before. Drawing on my training in yoga, meditation and clinical medicine- I bring an understanding of:
- Behaviour change psychology.
- Lifestyle medicine and healthy habits.
- Neuropsychology
- The physiology of stress and the importance of rest in completing the stress cycle.
The goal being that by the end of this training, your body and mind call you to meditate and be mindful- rather than it being simply another thing you need to add to your to-do list.

I felt this course helped me “unlock” mindfulness and found the exploration of ego and how we respond to ourselves a real key for this. Mindfulness is now a comfort and practice is soothing (even if brief) when I never imagined that would happen! After wanting to understand/be able to practice self compassion for some time, I felt this course finally helped. Thanks Emily.

I really enjoyed the Mindfulness and Self Compassion Course with Emily. I found it to be the perfect blend of theory, reflection and practicing different meditation techniques. Coming to an understanding about how self compassion allows one to live more mindfully was a profound realisation for me, and something that I hope I can apply to my everyday life.
