Holisitic Education is a community interst company dedicated to providing quality training in mindfulness to enhance the well-being of all those in the community, including those working in educational settings.
Mindfulness is a way of intentionally paying attention to events in the present moment with an attitude of openess, flexibility and non-judgement. Holistic Education offers evidence-based mindfulness training for participants from a wide range of backgrounds and living or working in different contexts. Research shows that regularly practicing mindfulness can improve mental health and well-being and resilience to stress.
Mindfulness for adults, including parents and carers can also help improve health, wellbeing and resilience to stress. Click here for more information about meetups, courses and practice days.
Holistic Education offers Mindfulness Meet Up sessions and the well-researched Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction Course for beginners and Mindfulness Practice Days for those with more experience.
Mindfulness for school staff can reduce staff stress and burnout, leading to less days off work and less feeling of being under pressure from too much to do and too little time. Regular practice can improve coping skills, motivation, planning and problem solving and taking more time to relax. Click here for more information about mindfulness in schools.
