Welcome to the Mindfulness Centre

Mindfulness is the activity which takes care of the mind and protects it (Buddha)
Mindfulness is a skill we use to cultivate happiness and clarity. The skill of mindfulness enables us to stay focussed on what matters to us, be flexible of mind, insightful, kind and wise with ourselves and our interactions with others. Whether we are shining brightly in our lives and want to stay fresh and rejuvenated, clear and focussed, or whether we are struggling with stress, unhappiness, depression or difficulty, Mindfulness-based training teaches us new ways to calm ourselves, not get caught in self doubt, reactivity, unhelpful judgements and old entrenched habits and instead, cultivate happiness.
”I gained an understanding for the first time that mindfulness offers a powerful form of insight not available through cognitive reflection and self-analysis” MBCT Course participant

No matter who we are, we all have some thoughts that and reactions that limit our lives. Regardless of whether you have the thought that ‘I am going to embarrass myself on stage’, or ‘no one will ever love me again’ or ‘they will find out I am a fake’ or ‘I want to die', our minds say things to us that limit our lives. Our minds can generate distress, exacerbate physical and mental health problems. Mindfulness-based training helps us be more self caring and wise in our actions and live into the life we most value.

“Liana Taylor is the queen and embodiment of mindfulness training. I attended her three day mindfulness cognitive behaviour therapy workshop in November 2008, and was amazed at how much I learnt. I don't say that in any disparaging way but because I have been meditating since 1987 and I have a professional background in the Feldenkrais Method, so I thought I knew about Mindfulness. Not only did I learn a lot, even more importantly what I learnt was deeply significant. I had a number of insights into my own behaviour that changed my life, what more can you ask for from a course?” Rachel Green, award-winning communication specialist and emotional intelligence coach, Western Australia
