Feedback from our trainings in 2023 shows how crucial our work is for educators and young people. - ““an exceptional course covering a wide range of mindfulness practices. The presenter was knowledgeable and was able to bring together a group of people from wide-ranging backgrounds and experiences with immense skill, understanding and compassion. The range of materials to support the course, in addition to the course book, was rich in documents for further reading, videos and extracts from other key practitioners in the field. I highly recommend the presenter and the course.” - “As a student teacher, I was initially unsure if this course directed at teachers would be relevant for me. However, I found the course to be incredibly beneficial and learned so many skills that I can apply when teaching. One of the aspects of the course that I particularly enjoyed was the mindfulness practices. They helped me to connect more deeply with myself, which is so important when it comes to teaching effectively. By understanding my thoughts and feelings better, I can respond to them in a more compassionate and constructive way. The trainer's presentation and communication throughout this course was incredible. She created a warm, welcoming and safe environment for us to learn and practice mindfulness. As an experienced and knowledgeable teacher, she was able to provide an excellent learning experience. - “This course was fantastic! It has honestly changed my way of thinking and throughout the weeks I could see a very positive effect on how I manage my day and challenges. The trainer is so patient and understanding and clearly has a huge amount knowledge in this area. I think this course is very worthwhile for everyone, particularly teachers!” - “This was my second time doing the Connected Teachers Mind With Heart course - I loved it so much the first time that I did it again this year!

She personifies mindfulness and compassion. There is a great balance on the course - information, discussion and practices are all key components and so well intertwined. Participants are provided with a lovely handbook at the start and following each session, and we received emails with detailed notes and supplementary material on the particular topic of the session. It is one of the best courses in mindfulness that I have done and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Don't hesitate, just sign up for it as you won't regret it. Plus your students will benefit from it too!” “I really enjoyed this course. The trainer's lovely presence and voice was excellent and she created a safe and nourishing container. Each week flowed beautifully into the next with mindfulness exercises and information. I looked forward to the weekly sessions with the group and the lively interaction. This course gave me the motivation to develop my own self practice and gave me some useful tools to begin to share it with children and young people. I highly recommend it” - Mind With Heart hosted a series of fantastic sessions with staff in our school. It was a wonderful opportunity to check in with ourselves and with each other and to learn and try out different strategies to support our own journey to personal wellbeing. The trainer shared lots of resources via email after each session which was really useful. - “The trainer is an excellent course presenter. Her voice alone will have you relaxed in minutes. She cares about the participants and is always eager to offer help and support any way she can. I really felt this course was a safe space with no judgement and no wrong way to feel and that is all down to atmosphere that she created. I feel I am leaving this course with many tools to help both myself and my students. Thank you” - “A wonderful course that gave me space and time to think and contemplate things. It allowed me as an individual to grow and enabled me as an educator to contribute to our school community. I would highly recommend it” - “I am pausing and breathing before responding to situations” - “the practice has really supported me through the recent loss of my mum, I don’t know where I would be without it” ## 2.
