Courses:

The best thing to consider, if you are keen to take part in a secular eight-week mindfulness course,

is the relationship you have with the teacher. If you are researching online or in-person courses
that are available to you, it is a good idea to engage with the teacher beforehand to see if you feel
that you can have a positive relationship with that person. This is important because you want to
feel supported and at ease throughout.
