I have just completed a Mindfulness Meditation course with Jan. She is a wonderful tutor who sensitively guides you through learning various tools to deal with life's problems. My life has completely changed! I can go out & enjoy life again without any anxiety or panic attacks. Life is worth living again! Thank you so much Jan.
Julie C, Brighton

I attended Jan's Mindfulness course & was very impressed by her knowledge, professionalism, & her empathic approach. I really enjoyed the journey I went through on the course. It led to a better understanding of myself by creating the time & space to truly live in the now. It also helped me in a practical way to deal with everyday life stresses. I can now focus on what really matters, what I can & can't control in the now, instead of worrying about the 'what if'. I highly recommend her courses, which are both fun & informative. Thank you.
​Janine, Brighton

So very sad this course has come to an end. Jan is brilliant, as is the course and the group. What I have learned will stay with me forever.  
Elsie, Brighton

Brilliant course. I've got my life back.
Jen, Brighton

Thank you for putting together a wonderful course and delivering it in such a warm and inspiring manner.
L.A., Brighton

Your hands-off approach has allowed us all to gel and blossom whilst you gently directed us to a better understanding. It's a great skill.   
Sarah, Brighton

Jan is the best tutor I have ever had. I would be willing to do any courses with her again.   
Sylvianne, Hove

This has been the most excellent and enjoyable course. Jan is a brilliant tutor, patient, intelligent, encouraging, supportive, and someone who really knows her subject.

Friendly, informative and helpful.
