The theme this month is
Mindful self-compassion is the foundation of emotional healing—being aware in the present moment when we’re struggling with feelings of inadequacy, despair, confusion, and other forms of stress (mindfulness) and responding with kindness and understanding (self-compassion). Mindful self-compassion also means holding difficult emotions—fear, anger, sadness, shame and self-doubt—and ourselves, in loving awareness, leading to greater ease and well-being in our daily lives.
Mindful self-compassion can be learned by anyone. It’s the practice of repeatedly evoking good will toward ourselves especially when we’re suffering—cultivating the same desire that all living beings have to live happily and free from suffering. And as the Dalai Lama says, self-compassion is the first step toward compassion for others.
The workshop is suitable for everyone from complete beginners to experienced practitioners. It fun, practical and experiential. I’ve been running this workshop for five years and people regularly re-attend. 🙂
Sometimes it will be possible to transfer your ticket – subject to availability. Workshops in Winter months tend to sell out so transfer is limited, summer workshops usually have more availability.
It is possible to buy a ticket as a gift, the person just needs to give the name the ticket was booked under when they check in with me on the day.
Please bring your own yoga mat if you have one and a blanket to stay cosy during deep relaxation.
Thank you, I look forward to seeing you.

Not all of us are lucky enough to be able to go away for a week’s retreat, so how about a local weekend retreat in Drumalis, Larne where we will devote time to mindfulness practice, relaxation, movement, good food, time outdoors and indoors to reflect and practice.
I had 11 people at this retreat last November, everyone really enjoyed the peace and simplicity and experienced a lot of physical and emotional healing from the experience, which is profound as it is such a short time.
All food and refreshments included from Saturday morning to Sunday lunch.
It is advised that you ideally will have previous mindfulness experience before booking this weekend, there will be lots of silence.
Check out the at the location here: www.drumalis.co.uk all rooms are ensuite and hotel standard. I have been using this venue to hold retreats for over ten years – everyone really loves this venue – and its so easy to get to.
Yes you can pay by bank transfer, PayPal, cheque or cash to avoid the Eventbrite fee, however payment must be in advance of the retreat and is not refundable from 1 November 2020.

Below are previous Immeasurable Minds events
In normal times this class happens in the Namaste centre on the Ormeau Road, where I’ve been teaching it for over 10 years, now it’s online via zoom.
As well as learning about what mindfulness is and the benefits of it you will also experience:
Most importantly you’ll receive an hour of peace and tranquility in a virtual group of other local, like-minded people. You will be surprised how lovely and easy it is to connect and build a community online in this way, and for this reason numbers are limited. This will be the second weekly programme I’ve run like this. The previous one was wonderful success.
AND especially at this exceptional time for the whole world we will focus on practices to calm our nervous system and work with fear and anxiety. Also sending compassion to those struggling – including ourselves.
Suitable for all: from beginners to experienced practitioners with a beginners mind. Come join us for an experience of peace in the middle of your week.
You can buy the course as a gift for someone – just ask them to give your name on the first night.
I have lots of free material that you can access via my social media pages.
YES you can save the Eventbrite fee – you can pay via paypal and bank transfer – just email me on mindfulmind@outlook.com for details. Once payment has been received I will send you the joining instructions.
Thank you.
Here is an explanatory video from Zoom showing how to join – it is pretty intuitive and once you’ve done it once you will be grand 🙂

You can use Zoom from a web browser or from the zoom app which you can find on the iPad, iPhone or Android app stores. I believe the zoom app provides best experience…
When you buy a ticket you will be sent a confirmation email with all the details you need to join the class at the appointed time. I will have an electronic record of everyone who has bought a ticket and will welcome you to the online class on arrival.
