When we think of our health, we assess what we eat and how frequently we exercise, but we often forget about keeping our mind healthy.

With so many pressures of modern living, it’s not surprising that a staggering 74% of adults in the UK feel stressed or overwhelmed.

We can quickly lose the connection to the present moment as we rush around, constantly thinking about what’s next.

Luckily, there’s a Wellbeing Studio in Stony Stratford that offers a range of mindfulness courses designed to reduce stress, improve focus and learn how to live in the present moment.

Before you dismiss mindfulness, it’s not about the stereotypes… it’s not hippy, there’s no crystal balls, or chanting.

You don’t even have to sit cross-legged! Mindfulness is a brain training technique scientifically proven to help people cope better with daily stress, pain, and anxiety.

Whitespace Studio offers everything from mindfulness tasters, introduction courses, and the 8-week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course – the most recognised and established course taught all over the world – which combines mindfulness meditation with the latest tools and techniques of neuroscience, psychology and the study of well-being.
