The mindfulness sessions have been excellent and really well managed, enabling me to get the best out of each week’s hour.

For me the value is being able to take the time out and reflect, and also to recognise “being in the moment” and not “charging” to the next thing. The mix from a cross section of the business has also helped to get a range of views and has broadened the sessions.

During the time working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic it has also really helped to maintain contact and  a semblance of normality with both new and old friends made through this weekly group.

Thanks again for the ‘Discovering Mindfulness’ session. Thought I would just share some of the actual comments from the team:

I thought this was fantastic!

Gave me more of an insight into myself than I thought.

Keen to purchase the books and maybe enjoy living a bit more!!

Me and my friend are going to look at the retreat!!!

I really enjoyed all of the breathing sessions and would definitely take some of this with me into work and personal life.

We can use the breakout idea in reception when we have a difficult call: to just take a moment to breathe.

It was an eye opener for me.

I was not much for the mindful walking bit as not my thing, but the rest was a surprise to me – had my doubts before the session but so glad you sorted it for us.

I think this (although only short) taught me a valuable life skill. It has educated me to look at my thought process and overall outlook on life. I left feeling positive, grateful and able to concentrate on the now. Has left me wanting more.

I had the privilege to work with Katie for more than a year. She offered a series of mindfulness workshops to support the well-being of our employees.

Katie always found a way to meet our needs and to connect mindfulness on a practical level with our everyday challenges. Her presence made a difference and encouraged our employees to be open to new approaches. I definitely recommend her.
