As someone who has worked in education in the UK for over 20 years I was very impressed with the way this course was delivered.
It was a fantastic course run by exceptionally skilled, caring and humorous leaders in a stunning setting in Spain.
Delicious food was provided with tremendous variety and the kitchen staff radiated great care and love, for example by putting out fresh flowers every day.
The course structure was very well planned, with a range of grounding meditations to start the day, mornings devoted to developing knowledge and understanding in, not only the core practices of the 8 week MBSR course, but also how to deliver them to adults who might be new to mindfulness.
I appreciated the afternoon breaks with time to prepare for the later sessions when we practiced guiding medications with each other, and also time to swim in the lovely pool and go for walks in the beautiful countryside or up to the village.
An atmosphere was created in which we could support each other and give honest feedback, focusing mainly on the positive, and we also either gained excellent personal feedback from the course leaders or learned useful tips when we heard it given to others.
