MINDFULNESS WORKS IS ONE OF AUSTRALIA'S LARGEST MINDFULNESS TRAINING
ORGANISATION. Every month over 600 people complete the MINDFULNESS
WORKS INTRODUCTORY COURSE ACROSS AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND. WHAT IS
MINDFULNESS? MINDFULNESS MEANS “paying attention in a particular
way; On purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgementally.” —
Jon Kabat Zinn (Professor of Medicine Emeritus Stress Reduction Clinic
and the Centre for MINDFULNESS IN MEDICINE). Modern research about
MINDFULNESS AND MEDITATION SHOWS THAT OVER TIME AND WITH REGULAR
PRACTICE, MINDFULNESS OFFERS SIGNIFICANT BENEFITS TO PEOPLE INCLUDING
LESS STRESS, less anxiety, greater focus, calm and happiness.
“Neuroscientists have found that meditators shift their brain
activity to different areas of the cortex…This mental shift
decreases the negative effects of stress, mild depression and anxiety.
…The researchers found that the meditators showed a pronounced shift
in activity to the left frontal lobe. In other words, they were calmer
and happier than before.” - Psychology Today THE BENEFITS OF
MINDFULNESS AND MEDITATION WITH REGULAR PRACTICE AND OVER TIME,
MINDFULNESS AND MEDITATION CAN OFFER THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS. Reduced
stress and anxiety Improved sleeping patterns Increased relaxation
Greater self-awareness and emotional intelligence Deeper levels of
self-acceptance and self-love IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THOSE WITH CLINICAL
OR SEVERE DEPRESSION Many studies show that with regular practice and
over time (at least 8 weeks), MINDFULNESS CAN REDUCE STRESS AND
ANXIETY. However if you have severe or clinical depression, it is
important that you receive specialist medical advice. For more

MINDFULNESS WORKS INTRODUCTION TO MINDFULNESS & MEDITATION COURSE:
“Thank goodness I came across Mindfulness Works. I have learnt so
much in a year and am the happiest, authentic and most content that I
have ever been. By learning acceptance without judgement has been an
eye opener for me. I’m continuing my journey of self-compassion and
feel excited and hopeful for my future. But am grateful of the now and
who I am today…” – Rebecca Young “The course was very
relaxed and friendly, and full of useful practical advice that
recognised the limits to time that everyone faces. Also I liked the
mix of people attending, with a range of different reasons for being
there.” — Rosie Cree “Since doing this course, I have been
sleeping much better, I feel much more in control of my emotions, I
have enjoyed ‘noticing’ my own state, but also it has transferred
to everything around. This means I am re-enjoying many things that I
had been taking for granted.” — Sandy Good FAQs Are there minimum
