I must be crazy..

Eve from Eve Rudkin Mindfulness

I must be crazy to do what I do. I suggest to people that they come to 8 sessions of mindfulness over 2 months, each of which is 2.5 hours long, and do home practices between the sessions, plus a whole day of mindfulness thrown in.

Why do I do it? Because I know from my and others’ experience that long-form mindfulness courses are transformative. They change people’s lives. The time and energy required is worth it.

I doubt I will still be doing this next year, I get enough work through organizations. And because people resist such a big, long, time-consuming course. They are too stressed (get it!?) But this is my passion, to teach these full courses of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR).

If you want to read someone's experience of doing it click ‘Read More’ - this article was published last year - it is a fun read!

The link will take you to my website if you want to find out more about the course too – I am taking bookings for one starting on 2 May. Get in while I still run them!!
