Connect & Thrive offers mindfulness courses to schools, teachers, pupils, corporate, individuals - enabling people to thrive and perform at their best.
Mindfulness
for all
We offer mindfulness courses that are accessible to everyone. These are skills-based courses that offer tools and techniques to help participants become more familiar with the workings of their body and mind, recognise unhelpful patterns of reacting to difficulties, respond skilfully, rather than react, and cultivate a greater sense of compassion for oneself.
Mindfulness in education
We specialise in helping educational institutions to formulate and maintain a whole school approach to emotional and mental health for staff and learners, recognising that every member of the school community needs to thrive in order for a school to perform at its best.
Mindfulness in the workplace
More and more companies are realising the benefits of mindfulness and recognise the fact that a healthy workforce is better for everyone in the long run. We offer customised training, workshops, taster sessions and Comprehensive courses to provide participants with key mindfulness techniques and guidance that enable them to embed the benefits of mindfulness in life and at work.
Put simply, mindfulness is the basic human ability to be fully present: aware of what we are doing, as opposed to worrying about what might happen in the future or ruminating about what has already happened
