Mindfulness Meditation 8-week Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) courses in Leamington Spa
Bo yo y to ok ur r pl ese ac rv e e
What is mindfulness? Mindfulness is a translation of a word that means awareness. It involves paying attention to what’s going on inside your mind and body, and what’s going on in the outside world as well. Much of the time our attention is caught up in our hopes or worries for the future (‘what if…?’) and our memories and regrets from the past (‘if only…’). This ‘mental time travel’ takes us out of the present moment. Mindfulness helps us to reconnect with our experience in this moment, to see with greater clarity how we may approach each moment skilfully, taking more pleasure in the good things that often go unnoticed or unappreciated, and dealing more effectively with the difficulties we encounter. Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) combines meditation practice with modern Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques, in an 8-week ‘class’ format together with daily home-practices. MBCT is helpful for people who suffer from repeated bouts of depression or who find that the constant stress and demands of their lives are making them exhausted, anxious and burnt-out. MBCT is now recommended by the UK’s National Institute of Clinical Excellence and is as effective as antidepressants for preventing recurrent bouts of depression.
In MBCT you will learn: • •
to become familiar with the workings of your mind and body to notice the times when you are at risk of getting caught in old habits of reacting that can keep you trapped in unhelpful patterns (self-criticism, rumination, worry, avoidance)
• •
to explore ways of releasing yourself from these old habits to develop skills in turning towards difficult experiences with acceptance and compassion, rather than getting stuck in trying to escape from them
•
to see unpleasant thoughts and feelings clearly as they arise, and ‘nip them in the bud’ before they can progress to more intense depressions or anxiety states
•
to use your increased awareness of the present as a springboard for making wiser choices in life
•
to be kind to yourself instead of wishing things were different all the time, or driving yourself to meet impossible goals
•
to accept yourself as you are, rather than battling with/judging yourself all the time

WARWICK BUSINESS CENTRE Work from Home ? Work from Office ? Working from home we believe is a decision made primarily on economy – To save money on rent / travel and drive down your running costs. But is it a false economy ? Does it always make sense to work from home ? Can you really develop the business as successfully as you can within a professional office environment ?
Ian Dennis, who runs events and travel company Zip Travel from the Business Centre, explains his philosophy. ‘When I started my company Incentevents in 2004 it was just myself and I worked from home . But after a few months the frustration became apparent at not being able to operate professionally from the home environment. I quickly moved into office space and the effect on the business was startling. I was more motivated, my business grew and I was employing people. As for the
costs , importantly the bottom line is significantly better than when I worked from home – quite simply it works’ Sue Ransford from Regency Enterprises book keeping services says the premises are excellent for meeting clients, have the advantage of being able to park on site and importantly is a safe and secure building. The offices are suitable for start up and developing small businesses offering 1 – 3 person units . They perfectly fit those wanting to take the ‘Next Step’ : 1) Wishing to develop the business they may currently be running from home 2) Thinking of starting 3) Undecided where to base themselves. The advantages of Warwick Business Centre are: • Professional business environment for meeting clients / suppliers • Motivation – the act of going to work in itself stimulates a positive attitude to
work and routine as opposed to just being at home • Networking opportunities – you meet other business and make contacts – perhaps future clients for you • Flexible lease arrangements • Increase your staffing as required • Flexible hours-‐ your office / your key 24 hours access as you need it • Allocated parking • Free ULTRAFAST broadband internet access So take the Next Step and join us here at Warwick Business Centre. Call Sue on 07949 237 263 ,talk through what you may need , come in and have a look around. We are here to help you make your business thrive. In addition to the main office building we also have self contained office unit, a converted portakabin , adjacent to the offices. It has 2 small offices, a reception area , WC , kitchenette.
Cost of £525.00 a month inclusive. WI FI included and two parking bays. Ask about special offers

Beautiful Artificial Lawns
without the upkeep!
Clean and safe ■ No mowing ■ No weeds No more muddy patches Hard wearing ■ Unaffected by weather/uv stabilized Green and usable all year round ■ Perfect for pets
Finding an artificial grass product that has the look of natural grass was never an option until recently. But with developments in the last 2-3 years we can now offer you a choice of looks that will give you the dream lawn all year round. We can even fit a carpet that will look like a freshly mowed lawn in the middle of summer with a mixture of green fibres and beige to give that thatched look. We use a new monofilament fibre so the feel of the carpet is soft to the touch and friendlier to animals.

GARDENING ADVICE FOR MID - JULY...
However, plants in the flower and vegetable garden should be watered only occasionally making sure they get a good soaking directed at the roots. Little and often is definitely not advised and keeping the soil covered in a thick mulch will prevent moisture loss through evaporation. • Remove rose suckers and tree suckers by pulling them away as far down the plant as you can. • Prune fast growing hedges like Leylandii. • Prune late spring flowering shrubs such as Philadelphus and Rubus. • Although it seems you can never completely get rid of it, you can keep on top of ground elder and bindweed by continually digging it up or treating with Glyphosate or Roundup. • Thin out developing fruit such as apples and pears to encourage larger fruit crops.
In previous months the emphasis has been on encouraging growth and nurturing plants along. Now we are in July it seems we have to spend most of our time cutting things back, controlling growth and hunting down and destroying pests.
Keep plants supported and tie in climbers to keep everything tidy.
Seek and Destroy
While relaxing in the garden, take a moment or two to look out for pests and diseases which can be treated before they take over. A regular spray with insecticide like Cutting Back Bug Off, will keep them in Some flowering plants will check and most products are have bloomed and be getting easy to use and tell you quite past their best so cutting clearly which pests they can them back by about a third deal with.

Hi, I’m Chris Aherne and I’d like to introduce Puncturesafe a permanent puncture prevention product, (try saying that lot fast!). It’s applied BEFORE the puncture occurs, sealing any future punctures as they happen! This innovative water-based product has been developed and manufactured in the UK, is distributed worldwide, is not harmful to the environment and offers the best value for money puncture prevention treatment available.
Agricultural
Boat Trailers
Cars
Bikes
I first heard of Puncturesafe about five years ago when my then teenage daughter got a puncture late at night. She was in an area where there was no signal on her mobile and she did not have a spare wheel, as most cars don’t. Luckily she was not alone and managed to walk to a house and summon help. Having used other ‘get you home’ type products in the past I decided to investigate what else was available to ensure she was never again placed in this worrying position. I found Puncturesafe, installed it and have never looked back. Puncturesafe is available in 4 different grades and is suitable for practically anything with a tyre, including:
AGRICULTURAL: Farming Equipment, Forestry Vehicles, Tractors, Off Road Motorcycles, Quads GRASS CUTTING: Ride on Mowers, Golf course equipment, Barrows and Carts CONSTRUCTION-BUILDING: Dumpers, Bobcats, Vans, Trucks Wheelbarrows, Site Tippers, JCBs MATERIALS HANDLING: Fork Lifts, Sack Trolleys MOBILITY: Electric Scooters, Wheelchairs ANCILLARY: Airport, Shipping, Warehousing, Event Organisers MILITARY: Vehicles used in hazardous situation DOMESTIC: Cars, Motorbikes, Moped/Scooters, Bicycles MOTORHOMES and all towed CARAVANS and TRAILERS of every type The list above is by no means exhaustive. Puncturesafe has a universal appeal from the ‘drive alone female’ worried about a blow-out to Agricultural machinery trying to save time and money from downtime caused by tyre damage.
So call today for a competitive no-obligation quote, outstanding service and a risk free-purchase!
