Trails of Wisdom

I provide expert advice & training in mindfulness practices to individuals, groups, & organisations to help them improve their well-being, control anxiety & increase resilience.

Mindfulness is a state of mind characterised by focused attention, awareness of the present moment & a non-judgmental attitude with a sense of curiosity & openness. It involves intentionally concentrating on the present moment & observing one's thoughts, emotions & physical sensations without reacting to them.
