Without your coaching I wouldn't have the tools to explore and treat my problems. The antidotes you laid out in the pillar connection, examples like rehearsing, using I instead of you to start a conversation has helped enormously. I feel by doing just that, there is a U-turn in my life. Thanks to you and also thanks to me!

The retreat was truly excellent. A wonderful location, a fantastic teacher, delicious food and a great group.

This course has given me the language and very useful basic tools to help me have a more positive attitude towards life. I can now better understand my basic needs in order to be happy and how I can take care of them.

I was practicing mindfulness meditation by myself using YouTube videos and apps, but I lacked a deep understanding of its principles and aims as well as regularity. The course has given me the tools and motivation to make it part of my daily practice. Since then I have benefited from greater focus, peacefulness and better sleep. I have learnt what my limits are and to listen to them. After this positive experience I also participated in a mindfulness retreat in beautiful Pajottenland: after the two days I was completely relaxed and even more motivated in keeping the practice. Absolutely recommended.

I’m so happy and fulfilled to have found and attended this course. The practice has brought a measurable change for the better in my life, I very much feel, and has helped me enormously in dealing with anxiety, stress and (post-) burnout. Specifically, and on top of the daily practice, I loved the scientific findings of the course, and the rational(ist) approach at its core. Very solid stuff, with leads & links to additional reading which I have found both fascinating and practically applicable in my psychological & emotive pursuits. I would recommend it very highly indeed!

The retreat flowed. It was definitively creating inner peace. Thank you!

I was very happy with the course and felt I was in very capable hands for my first course in meditation. I appreciated having an intensive course for practical reasons but would maybe like to also follow the more traditional 8 week one to have more time for exercising between sessions. Thank you, Brussels Mindfulness!

The Summer retreat was like a breath of fresh air! The timing was just perfect for me. After these days I feel rested and recharged on mental and physical level. Thank you Brussels Mindfulness for organising this retreat on such an excellent level!

This retreat is a wonderful opportunity to nourish and clean your mind. You reflect on your basic mental needs and concerns and are provided with a number of tools so that you can reach greater peace of mind and alleviate any unnecessary suffering. The idea is not to forget all this when you are confronted with your real-life situations. It is a never ending journey... wonderful. And there is an omnipresent kindness and support. Thank you.

The retreat allowed me to settle my mind, to feel safe and supported. The place was ideal to relax and practice.

Excellent course and excellent teacher, all my expectations were fulfilled.

Thoroughly enjoyed this introduction to Mindfulness. Great trainer, location and group of like-minded people. Will definitely be returning for a refresher in the near future!

High quality teachers and extraordinary communication and pedagogical tools (handbook, to-the-point emails, languages, knowledge..). Extraordinary mindfulness course which should be a must for everyone .... impossible not to like it! Mindfulness attitudes so much needed in hectic times.... and delicious raisins (you will find out why)!

Thank you again for the excellent 8-week mindfulness course!!! It was amazing and helped me so much more in finding balance, calm and building resilience in these special times than I expected. I will continue this journey.

I am now meditating every day! I found the course a good balance of theory, practical and sharing vs actually meditating.

I’m so happy and fulfilled (with work ongoing / more progress to be made still, of course!) to have found & attended it. The practice has brought a measurable change for the better in my life, I very much feel, and has helped me enormously in dealing with anxiety, stress and (post-) burnout.

Mindfulness is a great tool to train our minds and I would recommend this course to everyone who is looking to add quality to their lives.

The location, schedule and teachers [of the retreat] created an optimal environment for me to get my mind set to meditation. A wonderful and intense experience which may have lasted longer - but five days is fine!

Beate is really a great instructor. She has a sense for when to intervene, is clear in her guidance and has a warm voice.
