MINDFUL WAY
Let Your Mindfulness Journey Begin
Welcome and thanks for stopping by!
If you find yourself exhausted from living in your head and getting lost in your thoughts, if you struggle to find inner peace in a world that is fast paced and frantic or if you are simply looking for a meaningful way to engage with your life and the things that happen to you, then mindfulness may be a helpful practice to develop. And it will be my pleasure to be your guide.
Mindfulness is a wonderful tool that has been shown to reduce anxiety and depression, boost our immune system, help manage pain, soothe insomnia, reduce blood pressure and allow us to step away from unhealthy habits including addictions. It can even change the structure of our brain to enhance its function. What’s more, it is a skill that, with a bit of practice, anyone can lean!
ABOUT ME
I'm Olga, a Chartered Research Psychologist and a BAMBA accredited Mindfulness Teacher with a passion to teach evidence-based mindfulness practice. There is now overwhelming evidence that mindfulness can have significant positive impact on mental health, productivity and a host of other wellbeing dimensions. The time is now, absolutely, right to share this knowledge and skills to build more resilient, tolerant and compassionate communities in which societies and individuals can flourish alike.
My hope is to make these life-changing skills accessible to everyone who wishes to learn them and apply them to their life to reap the many benefits they are capable of providing.
My teaching focuses around MBCT* protocols where we learn to train our awareness, become aware of our stress triggers, how they manifest in the body and then using this knowledge to develop skilful ways to manage difficulties in our lives. I also incorporate practices derived from ACT** which teaches us skills to accept our hardships and lean into a more meaningful and fulfilling life instead of getting caught up in our emotions whilst denying and avoiding challenges.
*MBCT - Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy
** ACT - Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
"To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour."
― William Blake, Auguries of Innocence
