"When Bridgeen invited me to attend her Mindfulness Training on the Ormeau Road, I knew I would be going to something special, but didn't realise just how special the session was going to be.
Having attended mindfulness and meditation classes since 1961, I thought I knew a thing or two about this wonderful practice.
How wrong I was!!
Bridgeen's approach was and is the best I have ever seen or experienced. Her knowledge of mindfulness is huge - she has a unique way of sharing and teaching this. She is unique in her style. The positive life forces and sense of connectedness I felt during and after her class didn't leave me for several days. It was similar to being on a kind of "high". (I will never forget the Mindful Walking we did in a circle around the room... this was wonderful and new to me.)
She is very much in the moment, and creates her own perspectives and methods as she goes along within the general framework of the theory. She is utterly practical and explains the methodology in a very down to earth way.
She has a great knack of helping everyone in the class feel completely at ease. She combines her gentle sense of humour with her ability to establish rapport with everyone in the room and she is very skilful at making the teaching look easy - a sign of a real expert.
I was so impressed that I invited her to run some classes at the Northern Regional College where over 100 students attended her workshops and training. All agreed she was the best mindfulness facilitator and teacher they had ever come across.
I couldn't recommend Bridgeen's classes and workshops highly enough to anyone who wants to be mindful. This is an experience not to be missed!"
