With ideas, tips and techniques to help you enjoy a more mindful approach to life, you'll learn how to: * Adopt more positive ways of thinking and behaving * Become calmer and more confident * Break free from unhelpful thoughts and thinking patterns * Bring about positive changes in your relationships * Achieve a new level of self-awareness and understanding Life is happening right now; mindfulness will help you live in the moment, so it doesn't pass you by!
