A regular mindfulness practice can help with problems including insomnia, stress, depression, anxiety and worry. Meditation and mindfulness skills and knowledge are highly beneficial for both emotional healing and mental wellbeing. Mindfulness also helps us focus our mind on the present moment making us more productive in our daily lives. There are also many studies that have highlighted how mindfulness makes us more caring, patient and compassionate which results in improvements in our relationships both at work and at home.

Students’ feedback
“I also attended the sleep meditation before as well - which was very successful for me. I used to be plagued by nightmares and sleep was difficult, for over 15 years. The sleep meditation/dream yoga really worked well for me - and all the nightmares did stop and I have been able to sleep normally years since the course. It has been life changing, I would say.” ~ John
“The classes have proved invaluable, my accident is the perfect example. In January I was biking my two children to school, hit the ice and we went down with the bike crushing my ankle and leg. I immediately knew it was broken, though I hoped I was wrong. I remained calm and practiced mini meditations, focussing on my breathing for 20 seconds or so and then returned to the moment to focus on my boys until help arrived. It worked and with my pain managed I was able to speak with my young children and keep them calm. It helped throughout my early recovery and beyond. I remained positive and calm throughout (with a few momentary exceptions). I believe that is largely due to my meditation and the perspective that comes from it. I have been attending meditation sessions with Jake since the end of 2019, first in person and then online since Covid began. I still feel that I am a novice but some meditations are absolutely amazing and show that I am heading in the right direction. “ ~ Shari
”It is such a great privilege to attend these meditation classes. The teachings are pristine and Jake's wonderful sessions have inspired me to practice everyday. Thank you to His Holiness Gangri Karma Rinpoche and everyone at Martsang Kagyu Buddhist centre, for I have gained a new sense of joy and peace in my life.” ~ Abi“I have found the classes very helpful, deep and informative. Having a weekly meditation class has been like an anchor that has helped me to cultivate a sense of calmness in these challenging times.”~ Fred
“I have really enjoyed the classes and found that I have learnt a lot. In particular, obviously this is regarding mindfulness, but I have also learnt about Buddhism more generally, in a relaxed way which I have appreciated. The classes are reliable and I feel I am improving my practice at a steady pace, not rushed. “~ Joe
We also provided free meditation classes to the facilitators of the National Mental Health charity MenTell. Video testimonial from the CEO here: https://share.vidyard.com/watch/ToRgfmWdZDjjRXXMCjbKNZ?
