Testimonials

My aim was to practice again. This is what I did and I enjoyed it a lot. 

This was my first mindfulness retreat and I found it was perfect for me - not too intense but definitely challenging. Highly recommended

The retreat was a gift to myself, to find inner calm and peace and spend some quiet time away from day-to-day crazyness! It turned out this was one of the best gifts I made myself.

The training which we received on mindfulness and neuroplasticity has been transformational for our organisation and for us as individuals. It has helped us to be more discerning about our priorities, be more aware of our triggers and stressors, and to apply real techniques to reduce anxiety, build confidence and provide clarity for decisions to be taken. We are grateful to Beate and Brussels Mindfulness for accompanying our staff on a one-year learning journey with effects that last!

Silence is a beautiful way of sharing, I did not expect to make friends without using words, but it happened :) .  Will definitely come back…

The (Dongelberg) location is beautiful, simple and close to nature; it helps you change perspective on what is really important, what it is that you actually need. Viannou’s cuisine (and kitchen) is a joy and a treat for the senses.

My first retreat and quite an experience.  A great team of teachers, kind, generous, mindful to the needs of the group. Beate is a mentor, knowledgeable, intuitive and flexible; she is very good at explaining the essence in a way that speaks to all and adapts the programme and meditations to the group dynamics.

I appreciated the introduction and explanation, also the sharing and group experience.

It was great to take some hours for myself and get in touch and in balance with myself and the world around me. I am more grounded and balanced. Thank you!

Thanks a lot for everything, for new habits and mindful practices, and great thanks to Viannou for the amazing food. It was a pleasure.

It feels great reconnecting with the retreat by watching all these pictures: beautiful nature, amazing tasty & colourful food, likeminded people …and resourcing silence. Thanks for organising such beautiful retreats and sharing your positive energy.

I really enjoyed the mindfulness course! I can recommend it to anyone interested in mindfulness. The course is very well structured and lead in a very pleasant but at the same time professional way. I did the course with Beate and I really liked her style! If you are curious or interested, go for it… And Enjoy !

es, I highly recommend Brussels Mindfulness. The teachers and approach were the right balance of providing a conceptual understanding, hands-on practice, and personal and peer reflections and dialogue to understand and integrate what we learned into what we do and who we are! The impact has been immediate and keeps on giving - it is an investment that positively affects the foundation of self & holistic well-being.

I m a fan ? I discovered Brussels Mindfulness back in 2018 when followed an intense version of the 8 week mindfulness course with Steve . And now I followed an online course on Fear and Uncertainty, again with Steve. I really liked the course as it was based not only on mindfulness practices but also psychology. Steve is a very knowledgeable trainer !! it was also so easy to follow the course online. I didn't have to travel anywhere ? and the effect was as from a real life course .

The positive neuroplasticity course brought me much more benefit than I ever expected! In addition to the 8-weeks Mindfulness course, this has been a superb addition on my mindfulness journey. I must say that, when I started my first course in October 2019, I never thought I would be able to commit to 20 mins of daily meditation practice... And in the end, I have been meditating on a daily basis for more than five months now!!! A drastic change in my habits and a very positive influence on my general morale. Thank you, Beate, for all the energy and professionalism you put in these courses. We students absorb all the good and try to share it and spread the word. I am glad I chose the right time to take the two courses, because it means I now have a very useful toolbox handy for me to cope and face this stressful and unusual crisis.

I really enjoyed the mindfulness course! I can recommend it to anyone interested in mindfulness. The course is very well structured and lead in a very pleasant but at the same time professional way.

Helpful and interesting lessons with a teacher who is sensitive and very sympathetic :)

Great professional team to learn and evolve on my mindfulness path !

A very professional team with human intentions, lots of material to follow through and great communication. Highly recommended!

If you are looking for the best mindfulness course, look no further. Brussels Mindfulness offers the best courses - but also a space for meeting fantastic people and start a journey together. Totally recommended.

I was one of the first students of the Brussels Mindfulness and the course came at the exact time for me. I was overwhelmed and stressed. The course helped me immensely by giving me the tools to focus on what is really important for me. I had been struggling with meditation for years without success. Brussels Mindfulness taught me easy and effective ways to get into meditation and to get immediate benefits from short practices: as short as a minute a day! Over the years, I have also joined retreats, like silence days, which allowed me to understand better how my mind and body work. At whatever level of your journey you are, the courses and retreats will help you along the way.

If everybody would follow Mindfulness courses, the world would be a much better place!

I enjoyed the course and fund the the exercises truly valuable and healing. I am determined to continue to consciously counter the negativity bias of my brain with everything I have learned :-).

I can truly say that the course improved my quality of life and taught me tools that will help me for a lifetime. I like that I have learned a method to soothe old pains a little more, without diving into them completely. I have also learned techniques that make me braver in a playful way. The course creates new opportunities in areas I previously got stuck on. I am more frequently aware of reacting automatically out of stress and then choose to calm down first and look at what I really want.

My studio will never exist without Mindfulness and the MBSR training. Your support during this journey was priceless.
