Mindfulness & Meditation in Fareham & Portsmouth Hampshire

One-to-one mindfulness sessions in person in Hampshire, or online across the UK.

When your mind will not slow down

You might find yourself replaying conversations, worrying about tomorrow, or lying awake while your thoughts race. Life gets busy, and it can feel as if you never get a moment to simply stop.

Mindfulness is a simple, practical way to step out of autopilot. With a therapist in Fareham, or online, you learn short exercises that help you notice what is happening in your mind and body, and respond more calmly rather than being swept along.

A calm, peaceful scene for mindfulness and meditation in Fareham, Hampshire
No experience needed. If you can breathe, you can learn mindfulness.

Try it now: a one minute breathing space

This is one of the first exercises many people learn. Press start, then let the circle guide you.

Breathe in as the circle grows, slowly, for about four seconds.

Breathe out as it shrinks, a little longer, for about six seconds.

If your mind wanders, that is fine. Notice it, and gently come back to the breath.

Questions about mindfulness

Still have a question? Call free on 0800 970 4776

Do I need any experience of meditation?
No. Most people start as complete beginners. Your therapist will guide you through simple exercises step by step.
What if I cannot clear my mind?
You do not need to. Mindfulness is not about emptying your mind. It is about noticing your thoughts without getting caught up in them. A wandering mind is completely normal.
What is the difference between mindfulness and meditation?
Meditation is one way of practising mindfulness, usually by sitting quietly for a set time. Mindfulness itself is a way of paying attention that you can bring to anything, from walking to washing up.
Is mindfulness religious?
No. Although it has roots in older traditions, the mindfulness we teach is practical and non-religious, and suits people of any faith or none.
Can mindfulness help with anxiety or low mood?
It can help many people. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is recommended by NICE to help prevent depression from returning, and mindfulness can make anxious thoughts feel less overwhelming. On the free call we will help you decide whether it is the right place to start.
Can I learn mindfulness online?
Yes. Mindfulness works well by secure video, and many people like practising in their own space. You can also come to our rooms in Fareham, Hampshire.
