WHO IS THIS SUITABLE FOR?

This free 4-week programme is for anyone who has experienced pregnancy loss after trying for a baby for a long time or following fertility treatment. 

The course is also aimed at those who have been experiencing primary infertility only (TTC for their first child). This is a live and interactive introduction to mindfulness, run via Zoom, for 1 hour and 15 minutes each week.  It is suitable for beginners and for those who already have some mindfulness experience. The course will include a course e-manual, along with recordings of the mindfulness practices, to use each week at home between the weekly course sessions.

Mindfulness can help us to build resilience, stability and connection during these very difficult times. It can help us to find balance and even joy amidst uncertainty and worry. Through the practice of mindfulness, we learn how to take care of our stress so that it doesn’t overwhelm us and in so doing we learn how to take care of each other.

Many participants have remarked on the feeling of connection and intimacy that they have experienced from attending the online meditations and classes.

Participants of the course will be expected to:
• Attend all sessions as each session builds on the previous sessions and be punctual
so that we can really make the most of the time – each session builds on the previous
session
• Do some personal mindfulness practice in your own time
• Attend with your camera on

For more information and to check that this is the right course for you, we would ask you to please watch our webinar ‘An Introduction to Mindfulness with Veronica Ellis’ – https://youtu.be/LTVfOMmzNMc – before you submit your registration form.
