Mindfulness
Coming Home to Yourself
Mindfulness offers a way to meet life as it is, with openness, curiosity, and compassion. It invites us to slow down enough to feel what is here, rather than striving to change or fix it. Through this simple yet profound practice, we begin to rediscover our own inner steadiness and wisdom.
When we pause and become still, we start to sense the gentle rhythm beneath all the noise - the place within us that is already calm, kind, and whole. From this awareness, clarity and connection naturally arise.
Mindfulness in Nature
Nature reminds us that everything changes — that growth, decay, and renewal are all part of the same great cycle. In witnessing this, we touch something profoundly human: our own vulnerability and our capacity for love.

What to Expect
Mindfulness sessions and courses provide a supportive space to:
• Develop a regular meditation or awareness practice
• Cultivate self-compassion and emotional balance
• Learn ways to respond rather than react to stress and difficulty
• Reconnect with nature and the body as sources of wisdom
Sessions may take place indoors or outdoors, individually or in small groups, and are open to anyone - whether you’re completely new to mindfulness or seeking to deepen your existing practice.
If you would like to explore mindfulness or learn more about how it might support you, please feel free to get in touch.
My approach is to support you in establishing a connection with a deeper, calmer, more compassionate self.
Life can bring many challenges, I believe that we all have inherent resources, but these remain masked by our busy mind. Mindfulness reveals our innate resilience and inner wisdom.
Mindfulness can reveal a place that is not reliant on outer conditions, but an inner place that is naturally intelligent and kind.
When we can access this place, we feel deeply connected in our lives, this happens because we have first connected with ourselves.
“Mindfulness is about being fully awake in our lives. It is about perceiving the exquisite vividness of each moment.
We also gain immediate access to our own powerful inner resources for insight, transformation, and healing.”
— JON KABAT-ZINN
We all come with our bundle of obstacles and our bundle of longings.
The two begin to weigh heavy as we try to juggle their contents. “I wish I were happier, healthier, kinder... I just need to sort my relationships, my work, my life out... hoping for some sort of balance, if only things were different, I would be alright”.
Caught in this endless loop we become more and more restricted, our world smaller and smaller.
As our vision narrows in on “What is wrong and why can't I make it right?”
BUT…
WHAT IF EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT?
This can seem like a challenging phrase for us when we are suffering.
Our instincts might implore us to try harder to sort it out, or we might zone out by dulling the pain with alcohol, food, TV...
Mindfulness offers another way.
A way that is self-nurturing.
Mindfulness gently invites us to hold our experience with a wise and kind heart and shows us that what is holding our experience is already present, already Whole.
In this way, we stop the endless struggle and come home to ourselves to discover that we are more than we ever thought...and that we are alright.

Mindfulness in Nature: Shinrin Yoku
“Finding yourself is actually returning to yourself. An unlearning, an excavation, a remembering who you were before the world got its hands on you”,
- Emily McDowell
