Who can it help?

At the Oxford Mindfulness Centre we teach the techniques and attitudes of mindfulness to anyone who wants to learn, we train others to teach mindfulness and we engage in scientific research to make sure that we’re always learning about the mind and continually developing our approach to mindfulness.

Well-being

What makes us feel happy and gives us a sense of accomplishment might change from day to day, year to year. Research has shown that our minds are more naturally drawn to the difficult and unpleasant while ignoring the lovely and pleasant.

Stress

We all get stressed sometimes. This is perfectly normal. Although we tend to think of stress as a bad thing, stress can sometimes be very positive and motivating, spurring us to overcome hurdles and achieve our goals.

Physical Health

Depression

We all feel stressed, irritable, exhausted and low at times. This is completely normal. For those of us who suffer from depression, however, what starts as an ordinary bout of low mood can spiral into a full-blown depressive episode.
