Meetings are always once a week for 2 hours. The prerequisite for participation in the course is also mindfulness training at home, according to the instructions and recommendations.

We work with methodology from the Oxford Mindfulness Centre (a research and practice-oriented centre at Oxford University) and all our Mindfulness trainers have completed a 2-year training in Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy from the OMC under the guidance of Ruth Baer..

The programme is designed to be predominantly experiential and is based on the acquisition of formal practice, everyday attitudes and practices that become part of the normal activities of the day. At the end of the course, a certificate is sent to participants who complete at least 80% of the course. .

You can book a closed course (for one team or just employees of one company) or you can sign up for a public course, which we open once or twice a year. We can also run a Mindfulness experiential team building or workshop for you.

Who is the course suitable for? The course is suitable for those who want to significantly enhance their mental and physical health, mental well-being, experience of life and coping with difficult life situations, the quality of activities experienced as well as their work performance and also their impact on their immediate personal and work environment.

For individuals, the course can bring a conscious response to stimuli instead of being emotionally reactive, a deepening of engagement - personal involvement in one’s lives and a reduction in the experience of fear and related stress.

Teams that complete the programme can improve team performance in individual tasks or areas, communicate without conflict and at the same time resolve conflicts empathetically and constructively.
