About the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Course:
This course is designed for anyone experiencing stress, anxiety, and tension in their life, as well as those curious about mindfulness practice.
Stress often arises from work, relationships, or situations where we lose something or someone important, making life feel out of control. Even small but persistent daily tension can have negative effects over time. When the challenges we face become too overwhelming, it’s difficult to function without professional help.
In this course, we provide strategies to address both existing stress symptoms and daily triggers. Participants learn how to live a mindful, peaceful life amidst today’s fast-paced world.
What the Course Looks Like:
The course is workshop-based, focusing on mindfulness practice and its application in daily life. Over 8 weeks, participants attend 2.5-hour sessions, each with a specific theme and exercises.
Throughout the course, we encourage open communication, both during sessions and outside of class. Participants receive session summaries and guided practice recordings. Independent practice at home is an essential part of the course, allowing you to turn these learnings into daily habits.
Before signing up, please consider whether you can dedicate 30-45 minutes daily to practice. Read more about the Stress Reduction Course…

I am a certified teacher of the Breathworks Mindfulness method. Since late 2015, I have been leading mindfulness and meditation courses in the secular mindfulness tradition. Through my teaching, I aim to share my passion and experiences in exploring the mind and meditation.
I began my meditation practice in 2008 and have participated in numerous meditation retreats over the years, including a 16-week retreat in the mountains of Spain. I enjoy mountain running and playing the guitar. I practice Buddhism and meditation in the Triratna tradition, where I also teach meditation.
