Mindfulness in Leiden at Liv

The 8-week (MBSR) Mindfulness Training in Leiden

Learn mindfulness in Leiden; meditate and respond from peace and balance. Our mindfulness training is VMBN-certified and is reimbursed by insurers. Learn how to observe and accept thoughts, emotions and physical sensations as they are. Become aware of thought and behavior patterns, so that you can break them, make more conscious choices and apply your mindfulness directly in your daily life. You train yourself how to deal with stress, an overload of thoughts, frustrations and challenges with a fresh perspective. That provides more peace and freedom. Friendly for you and therefore for the world around you. Both in a group, private or as a duo.

The 8-week (MBSR) Mindfulness Training in Leiden

Mindfulness in a nut shell

What do you learn?

During the 8 meetings of 2.5 hours you will learn to apply the basic principles of mindfulness. You are taking this training because you want to practice integrating mindfulness into your daily life. You build up a rhythm. Together we will go on a physical, mental and emotional journey of discovery and receive practical tips and opportunities to continue practicing Mindfulness after the training. At home and/or in a group at our colleague studio in the heart of Leiden. You start at the basics and begin with a personal and non-binding intake interview with Guido, your mindfulness trainer who will guide you in your own process.

Your certified Mindfulness trainer (category 1) & partner Liv

Guido Madera

At a waterfall I met a Sadhu (Hindu Ascetic). In a simple mountain cabin and sleeping on a jute sack at night, he initiated me into the philosophy of Yoga. Both mentally and physically. He taught me ‘you are not your thoughts’.

You worry a lot.
You feel like your head is working overtime
You live mainly in your head and are so rational that you find it difficult to connect with your feelings and emotions
You want more control over your emotions
You want to experience less stress and tension
You want to live more consciously and recognize your pitfalls
You also understand that you sometimes react inappropriately, but you don’t really know how to change that
You are a perfectionist and very strict with yourself
You sleep poorly and have little energy
You feel like you are being lived
You want to get to know yourself better

Individual training or as a duo

It is also possible to follow the 8-week (MBSR) Mindfulness Training individually or as a duo. We can then tailor the schedule of the 8 training sessions to your personal agenda. In addition, we can pay in-depth attention to personal issues.

Introductory workshop

When: Sunday March 2nd
Time: 11:15 – 13:15
