Join the 8-Week Mindfulness Course for Stress Relief
Starting Tuesday, October 22nd, 2024
Are you ready to take control of your stress and bring calm into your life? Mindfulness offers a simple yet profound way to train your mind to stay in the present moment. In our busy world, it’s easy to get lost in thoughts—studies show we spend nearly half of our day caught up in worries or regrets. But what if you could free yourself from that cycle?
In this 8-week course, you’ll learn proven techniques to bring your focus back to the present, helping you shift away from stress, anxiety, and overthinking. Through mindfulness meditation and practical exercises, you’ll gain the tools to change your relationship with your thoughts, allowing you to experience life with more clarity, peace, and joy.
When we live fully in the present, we can break free from limiting patterns. Old habits fade, and new possibilities emerge—replacing stress, anxiety, and overwhelm with mental calm, improved well-being, and deeper fulfilment.
What You’ll Experience in Each Session:
Every session includes a talk on the week's topic, guided meditations, and a chance to share your own experiences if you wish. Plus, you’ll receive guided meditation recordings to be practiced at home.
Here’s what we’ll cover over the 8 weeks:
- Week 1: The Basics of Mindfulness Meditation and How to Practice
- Week 2: Overcoming Stress
- Week 3: Breathing Techniques and Managing Physical Pain
- Week 4: Handling Strong Emotions
- Week 5: Improving Sleep Quality
- Week 6: Self-Care and Building Healthy Habits
- Week 7: Elevating Your Performance – Body and Mind
- Week 8: Meditation and Beyond – Creating Lasting Change
The Benefits of Mindfulness Are Life-Changing:
- Reduced stress and anxiety
- Better sleep
- Stronger relationships
- Relief from depressive symptoms
- Increased focus and mental clarity
- A greater sense of well-being and happiness

What others have said about Siôn's courses:
" I had my doubts in the beginning, about how life-altering this course actually will be. How could I change all these negative patterns in 2 months? But here I am, a graduate, and a different person. I go with a big smile through life now. I am present. I am calm. I am hopeful. I wouldn't have described myself as someone with anxieties before. It was only during the program that I realised my anxieties and negative, self-descrutive patterns. The best part is that I feel this is just the beginning. There is so much more to learn and unlock, and with this 2 month course I feel equipped for my personal journey. Thank you, Sion, so much."

Before I started the course, I felt like I was a mess; my anxiety and other emotions were too much. I had done yoga classes with Sion before, and when I saw he was doing this mindfulness program, I enrolled immediately. The combination of the course materials that I could access when suited me, and being able to have weekly one-to-one sessions were fantastic. Sion has such a kind and gentle presence, which helped me so much through this journey. During our one-to-one sessions, Sion held space for whatever was coming up for me in that moment, and by following his example, and the mindfulness practices, I learnt to do the same for myself. This journey has helped me to build resilience and compassion for myself. I feel now I am in a much better place to tackle the ups and downs of life.

"I went into the program knowing only a little about meditation. I felt very anxious and worried about things and also suffered some flashbacks from past traumas. Going through the programme, building up my meditation every day and having 1:1 sessions with Sion has been life-changing for me. I enjoyed the course content, it has given me a thirst to learn more. I meditate most days now and the course has certainly made me a happier and less anxious person. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and would do it again in a heartbeat." -
Rhiannon, Cardiff
This course was so worthwhile and beneficial. Sion is supportive, knowledgeable, kind and non-judgemental. He's able to explain complex concepts in straightforward language and provide some 'lightbulb moments' of understanding. I've come away better equipped to manage anxiety and negative thought patterns in all sorts of situations.
Liz, Liverpool
I thought the whole process and concept of the programme was very well constructed and well thought of and I liked how there were a variety of things to do on a weekly basis. The programme has instilled in me a daily habit of strategies to manage anxiety and I currently do feel a lot better and calmer, having completed the programme.
