With the busy-ness of life, how do you slow down and connect to yourself? How do you cultivate a spiritual practice? How do you find a pause from your non-stop thinking? Perhaps you feel overwhelmed with demands and responsibilities. You might feel constantly stressed out or struggle to get a good night sleep. Maybe you are looking for a way to take care of your anger, anxiety, or depression. Or you’ve been exploring mindfulness but it’s confusing and you aren’t seeing any changes in your life or well-being.

Mindfulness isn’t a cookie cutter practice. We’ll set the foundation and assist you to figure out and navigate through practices that align with your current lifestyle. The groundwork of the course offers an opportunity to grow and transform, and dare we say, reclaim your peace and happiness. We created Mindfulness for Wellness because it has helped us to cultivate peaceful living for over 20 years and we want to show you the possibility of living well and give you the tools and practices to guide you there.

Let us guide you to a peaceful, loving, and joyful version of you with:

• Practical tools that you can implement right away

• A pragmatic way to prioritize activities that support your wellness (and eliminate those that don’t!)

• Research that explains the way that our mind works so you can choose a better way for yourself

• A deeper science-based understanding of mindfulness and examples of what this looks like in practice

• A community that can support you on this journey and knowing that you aren't on your own with this

• People that have walked the path ahead of you to guide and cheer you on

• The radical declaration that suffering is not enough; and that it’s your birthright to be happy and to live life in a more meaningful way

Meet Your Facilitators

Hello. We’re Hang & Sarah

We have been on the path of wellness for over 20 years. After having tried different fads and quick-fix practices, we know that there is no shortcut to wellness. In fact, wellness is a way of life. To reframe Buddha’s belief, “There is no way to wellness. Wellness is the way.”

You’re here because your heart knows there must be another way to live in this world. You feel open and ready to enjoy and live life fully. With your openness, let us guide you through a path that has transformed us and is now our way of life, and our family’s life with two young children.

The offerings on the course include scientific research and findings on the mind, mindfulness, and somatic practices to release stress because we believe that knowledge is power for change. Naturally, we will also share mindfulness practices and tools that you can put to practice and gain insights right away. Practices include breath work, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) like acupressure and Qi Gong, and simple mindful movements to release tension in your body and activate fresh energy and joy within you. We also draw on the teachings of all of our favourite teachers, including Buddhist Zen teacher, Thich Nhat Hanh, and the Plum Village spiritual community.

What’s Included?

What to Expect in Each Module?

Module One: What is Mindfulness?

We begin with an in-depth introduction to mindfulness: the theories, tools, and practices, and how to bring mindfulness into your everyday life right away. We take a brief historical tour of mindfulness and how we can apply this ancient practice into our modern lives. 

Module Two: Understand Your Mind

We dive into the inner workings of the mind and how you can use tools and practices to nourish your self-understanding, self-love, compassion, and kindness to help take care of strong emotions. We share interesting scientific research on the brain and mind to empower and strengthen your practice. 

Module Three: The Noble Truth About Suffering

The truth is we all experience suffering. The depth and length of suffering on the other hand is optional. We take a macro look at suffering to learn that suffering is our noble friend and understanding the origin of our suffering can be liberating if we stay on the path of well-being. Module three will strengthen your power of mindful living and how you can actively nourish your peace, joy and love.

Module Four: Nourish Your Body & Mind

We reflect and share on the sources of energies that nourish our mind and how we allow things into our consciousness. How do you choose things that nourish your body and mind? We share a step-by-step guide to practice mindful eating and its profound effect on bringing awareness to the food we consume every day. We look at community and how being connected to like-minded folks can support your commitment to mindful living.

We look at the art of communication and how to practice deep listening and loving speech with ourselves and our loved ones.

Module Seven: Cycle Wisdom & Prioritizing Rest

We explore how to ground yourself in the cyclical wisdom alive in your body. Discover how to read your body, manage stress, and tailor your self-care to feel more confident, inspired, and at home in yourself. We unpack the myth of working hard to deserve rest and instead look at how you can thrive by making rest a regular part of your daily life. We look at the challenges around sleep and how we can improve our sleep. We dive into the research of how rest heals and supports our nervous system and the seven forms of rest and why we need all of them. We share a rich variety of ways and simple practices to bring rest into your busy life.

Module Eight: Creating Your Support

How can we stay on the path of mindfulness? What do you need and how are you going to access it? We look at all the different resources to support us on our wellness journey. We contemplate on the challenges and obstacles that might arise and how we can invite mindfulness to steady our course of wellness. This final module will guide you onwards in supporting the more peaceful, loving, and joyful version of yourself.
