Mental health, like physical health, cannot be maintained without regular, sustained effort.

EVERMIND courses foster the key benefits of mindfulness using a range of MBSR practices that provide participants with the personal insights and tools they need to harness the space between stimulus and response while, perhaps most importantly, establishing a routine so that mindfulness becomes a way of life.

PERFORMANCE, RESILIENCE & LEADERSHIP at Work

Course 1

Developed for those in management positions, this is a series of 4-week courses that build upon each other, promoting the key benefits of mindfulness while bringing into focus specific challenges such as communication, conflict resolution, trust building and nurturing creativity and innovation.
Suitable for both one-on-one and small teams.

There are no public courses currently scheduled but this course can be delivered in your workplace.


LIVE BETTER WITH MINDFULNESS

Course 2

This is EVERMIND’s signature course. A 10-week immersion in mindfulness training that fosters EVERMIND’s purpose of creating in everyone the abiding belief that they have the resources to meet all of life’s challenges with courage, curiosity and joy.

This is a public course that would also be appropriate for workplace settings, particularly during times of transition.

Next public course begins at Physiocise, Moore Park on October 10th.


MINDFUL EATING

Course 3

This is an 8-week program that will change your relationship with food by using mindfulness techniques to train the mind while bringing non-judgmental curiosity to not just what we’re eating, but how and why.

For those who’ve battled long and hard with food, this course will show you that it is possible to trade anxiety, guilt and shame for trust, taste and joy – without gaining a kilo (you may even shed a few if that’s your intention!)

Next public course begins at Physiocise, Moore Park on October 13th.


MINDFULNESS-BASED-STRESS-REDUCTION (MBSR)

Course 4

The ‘mother’ of all mindfulness-based approaches and leader of the modern mindfulness movement, the 8-week MBSR curriculum is the one that established the key benefits of mindfulness through reliable evidence-based scientific research.

Pioneered by Jon Kabat-Zinn at the UMass Medical Centre in 1979, the lives of tens-of-thousands of people around the world have been transformed thanks to this secular, scientific approach.

No public courses are currently scheduled. MBSR courses can be delivered in your workplace.

MINDFULNESS COURSE TESTIMONIALS

I found myself at a low point in my life, my business was stalling and I had recently been through a relationship collapse. But within a few short weeks of working with Lisa I had made a complete transformation … What I find most exciting about sitting down with Lisa is discovering the day-to-day rules we create for ourselves, the way they impact our thought processes and how we can reframe those rules to form different viewpoints for a happier outcome.

I think her keynote address lasted for almost an hour – but I could have listened for two. Her engagement with the audience was brilliant: she was insightful, funny, inspiring. She had the audience absolutely silent, occasionally in tears one minute, and rolling around with laughter the next.

Not only did Lisa exceed my expectations, I have come away from the course empowered to live a more connected life.I have had several sessions of meditation in different formats, and this by far was one of the most beneficial courses I have ever done. My connection to ‘spirit’ is something that I have been practicing for many years. But, the added scientific and philosophical nature of the sessions gave me a complete and well rounded view of ‘Mindfulness’. I will be forever grateful for Lisa’s wealth of knowledge and generosity of spirit.

Our team was a bit unsure about the value that a mindfulness session would add to our busy strategy and transformation team. However, it was evident within the first few minutes what a difference this could make to our clarity and focus on delivering key program. The best thing about the mindfulness program was the practical tips and tools that we were provided with, we could use them in both our professional and personal lives. The stories Lisa told about how mindfulness has impacted her life and performance were relevant and engaging which made the session fun and also practical.

We had a senior management conference last week and heard from the likes of John McGrath, Adam Spencer (JJJ radio) etc all designed to inspire innovative thinking. It was refreshing last night to hear someone so clearly and colourfully remind us we are individuals, empowered to follow our own path. I went home feeling privileged to have heard her story and continue to reflect on it.

ABN AMRO employees have been fortunate enough to listen to some very high calibre speakers over the last couple of years, but there is no doubt that Lisa was the most inspiring of them all. Her story, her delightful manner, her humour…what a wonderful combination. I have long been a fan, but am even more so now!

Many of the boys who heard her speak have commented very favorably on the ‘life skills’ aspect of her presentation, as have mothers, telling me about their sons’ reactions. Sometimes we forget that the boys need to be able to talk about their emotional lives and hear from an outsider that it is OK to have feelings. I especially thank her for that.

I conquered my fear of public speaking, signed up and continue to be a member of Toastmasters. I found out what my hidden beliefs were and reframed them into positive beliefs that are more helpful for me. I got up in front of 80 – 100 people and sang at Karaoke when I am a terrible singer and I was surprised at how powerful I felt after I had done this! I have done extraordinary things that I would not have done if it was not for Lisa. I continue to grow as a person and have an attitude of continual growth now.

Lisa is a tremendously knowledgeable and motivational presenter that brings a wealth of life experience to her discipline. Her presentation on mindfulness was delivered with passion and rigor that was solidly underpinned by evidence based science and academic research. I would highly recommend Lisa to talk at your next corporate team building session and look forward to crossing paths with her again.

I loved how Lisa started the class with a meditation of some sort. It was a great way to ease into the session & to be more present. There was a great mix of information, I found all of it to be very useful especially the scientific content. I thought Lisa delivered the information in a clear, concise manner. I enjoyed the way she drew upon her own life experiences, share them with the class (with Olympic competition swimming) & relate them to an exercise we would then do.
