What Is Mindfulness?
The Greater Good Science Centre at UC Berkeley says; “Mindfulness means maintaining a moment-by-moment awareness of our thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, and surrounding environment, through a gentle, nurturing lens.”
Being mindful means we purposefully bring our awareness to the present moment, noticing our internal and eternal experience with an attitude of non-judgement and compassion.
About Me
I was born and raised in the U.K and studied a bachelors in Sociology. This ignited a passion in wanting all people to be able to access a quality education and a healthy life. I began my career in Education over two decades ago as a qualified school teacher and progressed into leadership roles. At the same time, through practising Mindfulness and Yoga, I realised that learning care of minds, bodies and emotions was extremely important for people, especially in an increasingly busy world.
Testimonials
“William still employs the deep breathing, calm thinking approach in situations both at school and at home. He flourished under your care as a calmer, happier boy who was able to communicate and understand more, both about him, and the world around him. There is no doubt in our mind that the mindfulness skills he learnt while in class have had positive effects on him and our family.”
– Jo Jackson
(Year 1 & Year 4 Parent)
“Our eldest child can suffer from anxiety and emotional stress and can be very reluctant to try new things or experiences that are unfamiliar to him. Miss Lucy taught him how to relax, centre himself and practice mindfulness as a way to face these challenges. It has been taught in an age appropriate way, using simple instructions which are easily comprehended.”
– Kylie Moir
(Reception & Year 1 Parent)
“Lucy has the ability to create invitations to practice mindfulness in all of its forms that can appeal to anyone, wherever they are in their own developmental journey. She can work with 3 year olds one session, 18 year olds the next and then switch again to staff or parent training right after, all seamlessly and with her trademark combination of kindness and non-judgement.”
– Jason McBride
(UWC Thailand Head of School)
