Mindfulness is a very useful and versatile tool that can be applied across contexts and in any parts of our lives, be it work, in our conversations, daily routines, as we travel, exercise, wellness.
It is however an abstract concept that can only be grasped through experience and having it as a consistent practice into our lives. Unlike other tools and types of self-mastery classes, it doesn’t have a WOW or rah rah factor. It moves quietly and its impact comes when you are least expecting it. However once you get the essence, you will have attained a very empowering skill – mental and emotional resilience and intelligence. EFFORTLESSLY. You may even have the sharp awareness to step out of the mind and observe how it is, in all its patterns. You will be unfazed by all kinds of drastic external challenges and you may have a wider clarity of the range of options you can take to change the experience before you. You will start to notice the subtleties that make up life and feel its full spectrum of richness. You can sit in contentment or choose to take an intentional action. You become PRESENT and notice answers unravelling and unfolding within the space you are in, right before your eyes.
Sounds cool?
In short, it helps you to experience BEING human, less DOING human. Less mind-driven and more in this moment, here and now.
PS: This programme has no religious or spiritual aspects. It focuses on the 5% critical mind – what you can be, say, do and have. It is the key to bridge what you may already know about religion / spiritual and all the current challenges and loops you are in every day. It gives you the HOW through observation while experiencing the depths of ups and downs without weighed down. You feel everything and allow it through. It is different from indifferent, apathy or numbed. In fact, you feel more fully yet unattached. You will have the strength to be within the eye of cyclone while being unfazed by it.
“Mindfulness is awareness that arises through paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment, non-judgementally,” Jon Kabat-Zinn
In mindfulness for well-being enhancement, we will practise the following concepts:
- training our minds to focus and pay attention to areas which deepens awareness.
- Deepen awareness into subtleties.
- Strengthen acceptance (This is different from resigning to fate or simply agreeing.)
- Through discipline and diligent right practice, you may also discover what it feels like for “Answers lie within us” and what instinct reflex, intuition feel like in the body
“If there is anything that can help you understand yourself and others clearly, easily and accurately at the same time, it will be the practice of mindfulness in your being.”
If you are curious about mindfulness, may i invite you to consider this as your next course for personal development. You will have yourself to thank for at the end of the 8-week programme, looking back to where you first begin.

Benefits at a Glance
Coach’s Background
Our Coach is a mindfulness practitioner in her being. She finds it one of the most useful self-mastery tool that can be conveniently practised anywhere anytime. Be it during conversations, an emergency, presentation, work, exercise, meals, massages etc. Through it, she deepens into the practice of 无为 (wu wei) and has transformed from a tigress mom to a kitty mom and from a type A personality to type B. She also discovered the ability to become more energy-efficient in the moments despite the dramas going on around her. Best of all, she relives her life again and now has the time to fulfil her personal dreams, guilt-free. Her family & work relationships have also pivoted as a result.
