Learn Mindfulness, Meditation and Yoga in Perth
Mindfulness is the non-judgmental observation of the present moment. It can be practiced formally in meditation or mindful movement and experienced moment-to-moment (informally) in every day life. It is a feeling of the body and mind responding to the present moment, rather than reacting.

Brett has Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and was diagnosed as a youngster. He has managed his symptoms with and without medication and is not an advocate in either direction independently. If your mind and body are challenging you, why not turn to the oldest form or creating union between these two, using methods proven as effective for ADHD by modern science.
Throughout his life he has used mindfulness to change the way his brain and body acknowledges and responds to the many many stimulations of each present moment.. and you can too.
Specialised in working with Adult ADHD, Brett has been trained in teaching mindfulness to children and adolescents and accepts minors as clients with their parents / carers included in the education process. Find out more here.
Learn to Meditate
Brett is qualified to teach mindfulness meditation in its many forms and techniques. Meditation is described as an experience and there are several techniques that can be applied for particular brain, body and emotional responses.

Let Brett help you learn the intention of each and even evaluate yourself from time to time to learn from what you observe.

“I can’t sit still, so mindfulness isn’t for me”
Sitting still is not the only way to be mindful… you can be mindful working up a sweat, eating your lunch, chatting to a friend, even jumping out of a plane. You will have something in your life that helps you to feel connected to the present moment.. find that thing, understand why you love it, then take that understanding to other aspects of your life.
