Why Mindfulness?
Mindfulness refers to the act of being fully present and engaged in the current moment,
without any distractions or judgments.
It involves being aware of your thoughts, emotions, and surroundings,
and accepting them without attempts to alter or regulate them.
Research has demonstrated that mindfulness can offer a range of advantages for children, such as better concentration, decreased levels of stress and anxiety, and improved emotional control.
Additionally, mindfulness has been found to enhance cognitive abilities and social skills.
By teaching children to be present in the moment and to pay attention to their thoughts and feelings, mindfulness can help them navigate the challenges of growing up with greater ease and resilience. The Heartfelt Mindfulness Training also helps students to be calm during situations when they would have previously become very hurt, confused or overwhelmed.

Colleague of my teaching days at school
“My children have loved Nicole’s mindfulness classes. So nice to have extra chilled kids talking about gratitude afterwards.”
Parent of a Mindfulness Class participant
“The training was brilliantly organized. Beautiful circle, candles, games, etc. The breathing technique helped my child to calm down. She loved the artwork activities and creating crafts and bringing them home. Nicole is friendly, warm, calm, welcoming, well organised and prepared.”
