About mindfulness and meditation

The practice of Mindfulness practice is inherited from Buddhist meditation traditions and is a word employed in Western cultures. The word "Mindfulness" has fallen in good favour within the health sector, the corporate world and academic institutions, and has generated an ever increasing acceptance and appreciation for Meditation - the Mother of Mindfulness.

Are you living a life of stress? Achieving more with less stress and enhancing the quality of life is the goal of this training. Mindfulness Meditation is a practical and effective method to reduce stress, cope with challenges and improve quality of life. The process is easy to learn and you will be able to teach Mindfulness Mediation and help individuals to cope with stress in everyday life and work in a good way. The process teaches individuals how to take responsibility for their own well-being.

At the workplace, appropriate behaviour and communication skills are just as important as academic knowledge. Mindfulness Mediation can identify and enhance positive characteristics associated with Emotional Intelligence (EQ). "A good leader should have at least as much EQ as IQ." While IQ measures rational and analytical skills of a person, EQ indicates a person's social and emotional skills such as integrity, empathy, intuition, inspiration, flexibility and adaptability.

The goal is to live life in a good way and have the ability to enjoy the present moment, instead of escaping from it. By learning the skill or "power" of being in the "flow state" - you will be able to do and achieve more by using less energy. Mindfulness Meditation helps you steer clear of the obstacles and develop a deep mind and body balance, which will enhance both your personal life and professional life. You will learn, and be able to teach the skill of charging your batteries while you work and have boundless energy at the end of the working day.

Mindfulness Meditation is well researched and known in today's world as an invaluable tool for enhancing one's quality of life - mentally, physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually. Mindfulness Meditation teachers are being sought after in the corporate world, schools, health centres, yoga studios, spas, medical clinics/health institutions, hospitals, health and fitness clubs. Studies are currently ongoing amongst soldiers and in active service in the US where the term "Mind fitness" is used for Mindfulness - the list goes on and on.

Finding The Voice:

Your voice is closely linked to your identity, and holds an infinite potential for discovery. Finding one's voice, is finding oneself. It brings an increased awareness of self-worth, self-acceptance, confidence, courage, strength and impact.

Many of us have already early in life learned to cut ourselves off from the voice's natural power and potential. We inhibit the freedom, spontaneity and authentic expression. As the voice regains it's natural freedom, an awakened vibration of vitality and joy begins to flow through us. To explore your voice, is also exploring the courage to be who you are.

This training will help the discovery of dynamic as well as meditative voice techniques, free up from the old limitations and allow for a rediscovery of our natural impact and natural being. Sound can lead us to our authentic self, and a re-activation of the slumbering vibrations of the voice can take us beyond words - and move us towards our inner essence.
