mindfulness for busy people
TRANSCRIPT
Are you one of those busy people who are rushed off your feet, scrambling around, constantly on the go, never feeling like everything is done, that there is never enough time in the day, feeling tired, exhausted, stressed out and fed up most of the time.
If so, I guess you know what its like when any moment of relaxation seems never to last quite long enough before the next wave of worries or things to do, creep up on you blasting a way any feeling of calmness.
Some caring colleagues or family members tell you to just slow down and relax, to take some deep breaths and try to do less ( if only you had the time and it was that easy). You’ve heard it all before or read it in some American self help book, telling us to just think positively, switch off, time manage better, and delegate more. Well if you are like me, you’ve tried all these things and probably also found that they don’t work.
You may be asking- why is it so difficult to work out a way to be less stressed in a busy world. How can you get out of the constant doing mode into the human being mode. The answer is mindfulness.
“Through the transformative power of mindfulness you will be able to find some peace and calm and a greater sense of well-being”

The course-Mindfulness for Busy People is specifically put together for those with hectic lives, the exercises and content designed for those constantly ‘on the go’.
As a therapist I talk about some of the more common problems that busy people come to see me about- such as burnout, tiredness, stress, physical aches and pains, anxiety and depression. All too common problems all busy people have. I demonstrate how Mindfulness can help you just as it has helped many of my clients.
Having been involved in the corporate world for 30 years as an MD, I am aware of the pressures. I have used this background to put together a meaningful and practical course, helping clients to de-stress, find their own unique space of calm and prepare them for whatever life throws at them (good or bad).

For your interest this is what the late Steve Jobs said about mindfulness“If you just sit and observe, you will see how restless your mind is”, Jobs told his biographer Walter Isaacson. “If you try to calm it, it only makes it worse, but over time it does calm, and when it does , there’s room to hear more subtle things – that’s when your intuition starts to blossom and you start to see things more clearly and be in the present more. Your mind just slows down, and you see a tremendous expanse in the moment. You see much more than you could see before. It’s a discipline, you have to practise it.”
