- Module 2 Your Breath, Your Mind, Your Body
- Module 3 Stillness in Movement, Movement in Stillness
How have participants found the course:
"More aware of my mental drifting in daily life and it allows me to come into the moment and see what I’m doing and not doing." S
"I notice things just pop into me head when I’m struggling with something or feeling really stressed. I just think as I’m walking along ‘Oh actually I need to walk like I’m in a different frame of mind’ or grounding through the soles of my feet and these just pop into my mind as I need them, it’s very useful. I don’t consciously think about them very much but at times I need them they come back to me." K
"I feel I’ve connected my mind and body back together again as I think the two have almost been living two separate lives, and that’s how I’ve felt for quite a long time. My mind completely racing all of the time, not even multi-tasking but multi-thinking, I don’t over think I multi-think, it’s really hard and leaves me disassociated in my body so I don’t listen to my body. I stress eat and there’s lots of things that go on that hold tension because I don’t pay attention to my body, (as if) it’s just a vehicle and it’s not just a vehicle." R
"I feel hopeful again, I now have everything I need" R
"It's been brilliant, I can feel it's helping in everyday life" K

Testimonials for past courses
I wanted to do the course because I have been very anxious most of my adult life - wanting to be able to anticipate how everything would go and then feeling nervous and like a failure when (surprise surprise) it often didn’t work out.
I often felt like I was leading a half-life - never really enjoying anything - always analysing and over worrying. If I had a busy weekend I was happy but if there wasn’t much on, the stress of not knowing what to do was overwhelming. I also had the feeling of wanting to get every task over with as quickly as possible getting irritated when daft little things would happen e.g hanging out the washing and dropping a sock on the floor. The course has helped me accept that the sock dropping is not a good or bad thing - helping me take the time to just stay in my own joyful, calm mind whatever I am doing.
I am almost terrified to say all of this as it is early days and I’ve never been very successful at doing what I know to be good for me. But this feels different as it goes hand in hand with the yoga which is an absolute joy in my life. It’s only in the last year I realise that yoga is not another exercise class but about getting to know yourself, recognising feelings and finding a way to feel well without putting yourself under pressure, finding space....it make so much sense now that bodily and mentally gently encouraging tension to go away makes you more resilient and flexible....

I started the 8 week Mindfulness Course with some experience of following guided meditation and from that, had presumed this course would be ‘easy’. I certainly hadn’t expected such a journey of personal growth. I actually feel like I have been though therapy with the support of Hugh and his infinite wisdom and the sharing of experiences along the way with a wonderful group of people.
My biggest learning was that my ‘just be happy’ approach to life had often been though gritted teeth whilst suppressing any ‘negative’ feelings. Allowing myself to feel ‘everything’ has been uncomfortable and challenging at times but I have come away with a inner confidence and belief that....it’s all okay.

About the Sukhita Meditation course
This course is the culmination of nearly 40 years of practice and over 25 years of teaching. It brings together the learning that come from secular Mindfulness (MBCT, MBSR) with the self-compassion teaching of loving kindness and forgiveness meditation and the understanding that comes from Cognitive science and philosophy.
Hugh has taught Mindfulness courses over 15 years to a wide range of people for use in their daily, family and working lives including those with life limiting conditions. He has taught mental health professionals including Psychiatrists, Psychotherapists, Counsellors, Warwickshire Educational Psychology Service, NHS Consultants, GP's and Nurses and business coaches a number of whom have subsequently gone on to teach Mindfulness in their own professions.
He continues to study on retreat each year as he has done since 1981.
