Mike Kewley is a mindfulness teacher I wholeheartedly recommend and endorse. He has a unique and effective way of distilling the wisdom of ages and teachings of mindfulness that can open up new possibilities and provide a sense of freedom for people. When the student is ready, the teacher will appear, and Mike is one of the best available.

– Michael, Texas USA

Words fail me to do justice to describe my full experience over the last 6 weeks. You have a unique ability to explain and simplify complex concepts relating to Mindfulness. I appreciated your openness to share your personal experiences to make concepts more clear. Your techniques are so practical, appropriate and useful that I was able to implement them immediately. I experienced the benefits of your practices from day 1, this motivated and inspired me to integrate them in my daily life. They have brought me so much stillness and peace that I have not experienced  previously during my years of meditation.

– Mahendran, Sydney, Australia

Having suffered with Anxiety and OCD for over a year, I contacted Mike to learn more about mindfulness so that I could gain more control over my mind. I can see that real change is possible through the skills that Mike teaches. I’d thoroughly recommend training with Mike to anybody who wishes to change their relationship with their mind and the world around them.

Andy, Isle of Man

The unique experience of Mike Kewley directing us to melt back into our own awareness is a feeling of infinity and bliss. This is likely accelerated by being in the presence of a normal enlightened being.

– Christopher, Grenoble France

I had no idea that enlightenment was so close, and that it was within me, of all people! I just needed to be shown how to find it. I will forever be indebted to Mike for this. The hardest thing about the 6-week course was finding the courage to get there in Week One. If you have any doubts, relax: it’s just a thought. I now view happiness through a different lens – the moments of absence of doubt, anxieties, greed. This is a far nicer place to be. I am now resourced to be with the difficult parts of life by surfing the emotion, not resisting it. For once I am excited to live in the momentum.

– Sam , Isle of Man

Whatever your tradition, experience or meditation background a few sessions with Mike will undoubtedly be invaluable to you in learning about yourself and your own potential. Go for it!

– Kevin, UK

Through various exercises, coupled with some wonderful parables and stories Mike took me on a journey to discovering a stillness I never thought myself capable of. The level of clarity and calmness your mind can achieve by simply stopping for a short while, closing your eyes and breathing can change your life. I’ll always be grateful to Mike for awakening me to the power of meditation and what my mind can achieve.

– Jamie, Isle of Man

I would highly recommend Mike’s course to anyone who struggles with anxiety or overthinking.

– Summer, Isle of Man

I cannot recommend Mike’s course enough. I do believe it was the best thing I have ever done for myself, my mind and my sense of place in (and as part of) the Universe.

– Lorcan, Isle of Man

Mike’s one-on-one 6 week mindfulness training sessions have afforded me a useable, practical, toolkit for monitoring and improving my mental health in the same way as a personal trainer might assist you with physical health. Leave any scepticism at the door; there are long-term, real-life benefits from a small time and low monetary investment.

– James, Isle of Man

I am so moved because this course truly saved me from self destruction. For me it wasn’t just the practices, it was also everything you said in between. Thank you so much for making this course so easy. I’m a completely different person in such a short time because of the understanding you gave me.

– Ella, Isle of Man

I am really and truly finding the whole process absolutely life-changing for me. It’s greatly helped me deal with my emotions and past trauma. Thank you so much for all your guidance.

– Karen, Isle of Man

We really appreciated the course and the care you took to explain the various processes in layman’s terms. The exercises proved beneficial in such a short period and we would highly recommend this experience.

– Allan and Anne, Isle of Man

Having just completed the 6 week Mindfulness course with Mike, I have no hesitation in recommending this course. In fact, I have already done so to many clients and friends. As someone who finds it hard to switch off, relax and empty my busy head, I was so sceptical starting this course. After the first 20 minutes I was so delighted I had made the decision to give it a try. For the first time in what felt like years, there was space in my head and calm in my stomach. Mike’s nature, presence and tone is calming in itself and he delivers the course brilliantly, keeping you engaged throughout.

– Claire, Isle of Man

I have to be honest, I didn’t know what Mindfulness was or how much I needed it when I booked the 6-week course. Mindfulness is truly a life changer for me so thank you Mike. I’m much calmer, less stressed and less anxious because of practising the techniques.

– Theresa, Isle of Man

Thank you for the 6-week course, it was crammed with so many useful tools and interesting stories. Although I attended the course out of curiosity, I soon realised how brilliant the use of mindfulness could be. It was a shock to realise how busy and chaotic the mind is, only when you sit with your own thoughts do you realise that. Thank you for providing me with simple techniques and understanding.

– Jill, Isle of Man

Myself and my husband attended the 6 week Mindfulness Training course as we wanted to try learn about mindfulness and see how we could integrate this into our daily lives. From the first session, we both found Mike to be highly engaging and fascinating to listen to his past experiences and insights into mindfulness, he truly is a mindfulness master. We learnt various different mindfulness practices during the course, one of which called the Loving Kindness practice, which I found to be particularly moving at the session and will definitely continue to use this practice to help me with my thoughts around challenging people. I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn about mindfulness, whether you are simply curious or are experiencing some difficult times and think this would help you. Mindfulness allows you the time to really experience the current moment, think about things in a different way and see life in more calm and manageable way. My heart, soul and mind are refreshed and in a content place thanks to making the time to be mindful.

Thank you Mike for your wise words and positive vibes.

– Lisa and Jules

Mike’s demeanour is such, that I felt totally relaxed & engaged. It was reassuring to learn that mindfulness does not mean clearing the mind of all its clutter (which is an impossibility!). Rather, it acknowledges & accepts thoughts & feelings, with the strategies learnt being  powerful tools to dissipate unhelpful negativity. It may sound so simple but it is no exaggeration that mindfulness has calmed my mind & given me peace. Now, mindfulness comes naturally & I ‘live in the moment’ much more, which is very freeing; for which I am truly grateful. 

– Sue, Isle of Man

Stop, take notice, how do I actually feel? Already breathing, heart beating, that’s what’s really real. Find my anchor, surf my breath in this river that always runs, Forever changing, for each moment passed, another moment comes. Practising loving kindness, to others I empathise, My mind is mostly cruel to me, now I label, de-sensitise. Time is passing regardless, often it feels fast paced, I realise how precious each moment is, not one grain of sand to waste. The dread, the panic and the worry, scenarios I’d catastrophise, Are long passed, I’ve learned to let them go, and now I don’t mind my mind.

– Leanne, Isle of Man

I have been taking part in Mike’s weekly Mindfulness sessions for several months now and have just finished his 6-week mindfulness course. The changes I have seen and felt in myself are simply incredible. Having learnt to step back and to get out of my own way, I have discovered the art of simply “being” and the indescribable beauty that is true peace. When I rest in that pause, I know I have come home. Finally.

Thank you, Mike, for showing me the way.

– Lou, Isle of Man

Amidst the maelstrom that was lock down, home schooling,  bereavement and financial uncertainty Mike’s course was a welcome highpoint. From the valuable lessons learnt each week to the very nature of attending the course itself, I would highly recommend anyone suffering with anxiety, uncertainty and in need of some direction to attend. 

These are lessons that will stick forever.

– Chris, Isle of Man

I wanted to say thank you, thank you for the last 6 weeks, they have been hugely beneficial and have felt like the beginning of a new way of life. I am looking forward to a future with the tools you have provided me with.

– Ferghus, London

Mike’s mindfulness course is a great course for both someone completely new to mindfulness and someone seeking a refresher course. It’s an interesting mix of theory, techniques and stories. I particularly appreciated getting recordings of the sessions so I could listen to them again. By the end of the course, I felt calmer and more serene. I am very glad I chose to do this course and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in mindfulness.

– Michelle, London

I found the ‘Living Moment’ (deeper mindfulness) Course to be a wonderful journey of experience and self discovery, each segment beautifully connected and expertly guided by Mike Kewley himself. Shortly after starting the course I was asking the questions, “who am I? What am I?” and by the end of the this liberating and most interesting 6 week course, those questions had been answered. Mindfulness has had a profound effect on me and I would best describe this course as an awakening.

– Thank you Mike.

 A.C., Isle of Man

I found the course very valuable, kept my equanimity strong through a lot of challenges this summer. Even now I find myself smiling in the face of adversity and noticing my own attitude changed, quite neutral instead of panicking and almost saying to myself – Ok, that was unexpected, let’s see where this little upheaval/ challenge leads to. I also became more aware of feelings, but in a bit more detached way. Rather than having a reaction to them, which I still do, I am human, I can look at them and ask myself where is this coming from, what happened, what triggered me and actually let go after. It’s like going to therapy, only I am helping myself with this deeper awareness.

I feel like I know myself more. thank you.

– Natalie, Isle of Man

I felt trapped…. I had too much work, too many things to juggle, not enough time to do everything that needed to be done as well as unexpected health issues……..I had reached a point where I had realised that I shouldn’t and couldn’t go on like this. A friend suggested that I look into Mindfulness (I’d previously pushed it aside as another thing I didn’t have time for), however this time I gave it a go.  Mike was recommended to me by a friend and after attending one of the monthly drop in sessions I had a feeling that wrestling back control of my mind was a good place to begin.  I started by attending Mike’s 6 Week Mindfulness Course and found real life benefits that I could immediately start to apply to “my life” and as I progressed through the course I could feel the perceived weight of “my life” start to get lighter and the mist starting to clear.  This promoted me to look deeper and I then went straight into his next 6 week “The Living Moment” course and the benefits continued to flow.  The outcome for me wasn’t enlightenment, but it was a clarity and understanding of who was really in control of my life and……. it turned out that it wasn’t my mind that had been playing tricks on me for so long.  If only I’d know this sooner.

I have come away from Mike’s courses better armed to manage my mind and my life.

– Paul, Isle of Man

I’ve been practising Mindfulness for some time now and have tried to attend Mike’s Mindfulness events whenever possible. I have recently finished Mike’s 6 week Mindfulness course. On this occasion it was held via Zoom rather than as a physical group. This had the advantage of not needing to travel and so being able to do it in the comfort of your own home with your favourite refreshments to hand. I found the course to be life changing, in as much as it has definitely altered how I ‘see’ the world and how I react to it. I have found that my thoughts have become a lot ‘less sticky’. I don’t find myself screaming off on a tangent mentally as much. I’m a lot more aware of my thoughts and find myself able to ‘follow’ the ones I want. Consequently, I live much more ‘in the moment’. My awareness is heightened and I find myself noticing things that I’d previously been oblivious to. It’s a joy to ‘see’ the world through ‘fresh eyes’. There’s so much to see. I don’t have a moments hesitation in recommending this course to anyone who would like their head to be ‘less busy’. That’s probably everyone. Mike is an excellent guide and mentor throughout. He uses simple terms and comparatively straight forward techniques to guide you.

The end result is extremely worthwhile.

– Bill, Isle of Man

Mike’s excellent monthly mindfulness sessions offer consistent and effective training in the twin pillars of mindfulness practice: the ability to calm the mind and gain insight into its nature. Mike always brings the qualities of self-reflection, depth of practice and openness to his classes, and this allows his guided sessions to be useful for both beginners and experts alike. Attendees are invited to discuss their experiences and ask any questions that come up before or after the training and Mike always responds with useful and considerate suggestions.

I can’t recommend a class with Mike highly enough!

Rhodri, Isle of Man

I enjoyed attending your advanced mindfulness course. Throughout, you were knowledgeable and confident, with a calm, measured delivery of the material. You kept everyone involved and handled questions well.  The course helped me to explore who I am and what I am in a deep and meaningful way, and gave me tools and techniques to take my exploration further.

– Steve, Isle of Man

Mike’s relaxed and inclusive manner make his classes accessible and enjoyable for both beginner and for those with a basic previous experience of mindfulness or meditation. Discussion amongst other participants allows the benefit of learning that isn’t available from practicing alone. Step back and appreciate the freedom of not being entirely controlled by the chattering monkey mind!

– Andrew, Isle of Man

I invite anyone who cares for their mental/ physical health to strongly consider Mike Kewley’s guided Mindful Meditation sessions. Mindfulness is the most simple and natural way to overcome everyday mental obstacles, stresses, anxieties and worries and it can be used by anyone. Everyone who reads this right now has the ability to work with their mind, overcome thoughts, and enhance focus to greater levels. All you need is an insight on how to do that and Mike is the perfect teacher. From my own personal experience after focusing on mindfulness for the last 6 weeks, I now believe that it is an invaluable practice. Its not only about following your breath, quieting the mind or relieving stress but realising the beauty, peacefulness and flow of the present moment. Life does not have to be lived in fast forward; or being caught up in thoughts and distractions that this current world conditions you with. Learn how to use your senses, and emotions to experience the flow of life happening right now.

May you all be happy and well,

– James, Isle of Man

I have been going to Mike Kewley’s Mindfulness events for some time now, regularly going to the monthly meets in both Douglas and Ramsey. I remember being slightly nervous the first time. However, the other people there were friendly and I was soon at ease. Mike shares his knowledge and experience in a very comfortable, relaxed manner. He has a way of talking about things in a way that makes it easier to understand. I’ve found every one of his subsequent events to be equally relaxed and welcoming, with Mike himself being very friendly and approachable. The monthly meetings, which are held in Douglas, Castletown, Peel and Ramsey offer something for all of us, whether new to Mindfulness or those with more practice. I don’t have a moments hesitation in recommending Mike Kewley’s monthly Mindfulness meetings. There really is something for everyone.

– Bill, Isle of Man

Thank you for helping people like me connect with the now!

– Shruti, USA

For anyone who has done Mike’s initial 6 week Mindfulness course, a natural next step is the 6 week Living Moment course. Mike covers some of the earlier topics in more depth as well as deepening our sitting practice with longer periods of sitting meditation.  Don’t expect to gain an instant full understanding of some of the topics such as Interbeing and Non-duality, but even being introduced to them helps to develop an enquiring mind.  I found this course helped me develop a regular daily sitting practice and further exploration of some of the subjects covered. I still sometimes use Mike’s guided meditations from his website in my daily practice

– Andrew, Isle of Man

I had the best sleep ever last night. So relaxed after the class. 
Last weeks lesson was really powerful to understand thoughts are just thoughts. I’ve been trying to quit smoking for over 5 years and really struggled. I was feeding my own version of Mara everyday but I’ve always thought I was in control of my thoughts and I could stop if I just kept trying. I now realise it’s almost impossible to control the mind and smoking is just an addiction. So I’ve bought some patches and I’ve been using them this week. I haven’t smoked now for 5 days which is really impressive for me. 

Honestly, I don’t think I could have done it without your wise words. I’ve been successful for short periods of time before but this time I think I have the knowledge to free my mind a bit. 
Thanks so much.

– Craig, Isle of Man

I recommend the six week mindfulness course with Mike , it has helped me with my PDSD, reduced my anxieties and enabled me to live for the moment. I have also started noticing things that have been staring me in the face for years. Mike is very easy to communicate with and makes you feel at ease.

Thank you Mike.

– Polly, Isle of Man

The 6 week mindfulness course has been an amazing insight into the basics of mindfulness. Mike has guided me to explore and expand my abilities to live in the moment and make the most of the day to day experiences. It has helped me to reduce unnecessary anxieties and live for the moment.

Thank you.

– Nikki, Isle of Man

I reached out to Mike after struggling with a few things. I was a serial over-thinker, I worried about everything and panicked about most things. It was all getting too much and every day was becoming more and more of a battle. Little things like going to a shop or getting my haircut were becoming real challenges and I knew I needed to do something about it.

I felt an immediate sense of relief after seeing Mike for the first time, we practiced breath awareness and I can confidently say it has changed my life. After just 1 or 2 sessions and daily practices that Mike gave me, I noticed a real difference; in those moments of anxiety and panic I was learning how to take control through the breath awareness technique’s that Mike showed me.

I originally booked a 6 week course with Mike, but I started to see results after just 1 or 2 sessions; now mindfulness is a big part of my life and I always dedicate 10 to 20 minutes every day to practice. What Mike taught me is easy for anyone to follow and the benefits are huge.

I would highly recommend Mike to everyone and anyone.

– Ian, Isle of Man

Before I saw Mike I had a multitude of issues I wanted to work on. From chronic pain to anxiety and I thought yep let’s do it and see what I can learn to fix it. What I wasn’t really prepared for was that I had the answer the whole time!

I didn’t have to go half way around the world to find a guru with all the answers… I didn’t have to pay thousands in therapy sessions… All I had to do was sit. Sit and arm myself with some basic tools that could not only improve my life…but give me my life back.

Doing these sessions with Mike has made me realise that life is as simple as you make it – our minds are responsible for so much unnecessary anguish and drama- who wouldn’t want to be able to tap into this and just calm it… calm it down. You can’t achieve this on a wholesome level with medication and drugs. The human brain is capable of so much more than we know… it’s good to trust it once in a while.

Thank you so much Mike.

– Sarah, Isle of Man

I’d like to thank you again for my mindfulness awakening. I feel like my mind is slowly being freed from the suffocating constrains of anxiety. It was an every day fight with myself thinking I wasn’t good enough and how everything I did was worthless. I got to the point where I couldn’t even trust my own judgment anymore I had zero self confidence and felt completely alone. I felt like a frail broken twig blowing in the wind clinging onto the tree hoping not to snap.

Now I remember to stop and breathe, to find my anchor and let thoughts go as quickly as they come into my head. I’ve learnt to embrace life again, I’m able to be present in the moment and just enjoy being in it. I can breathe freely and appreciate life and I’m slowly getting to be ok with myself again.

– Jessica, Isle of Man

Thank you so much for the past 6 weeks. I wasn’t expecting too much from the course. I was probably expecting divine intervention, to assist with the problem I felt I had. Divine intervention was not required. Your concise teaching methods, easy handouts, and links to the assisted exercises were invaluable. I have learned so much. I practised, I embraced, and now feel so much better. I now know what to trust and it isn’t always my thought patterns. I will continue this practice. Once again, Thank you.

– Karen, Isle of Man

Due to an extremely busy work life and equally so personal one, I was finding it increasingly difficult to focus the mind. I felt this was starting to hamper my productivity and attention span, not to mention, elevated  levels of stress which was also affecting my sleep.  

I can’t recommend  the course enough.  

– Alan, Isle of Man

I joined the 6 week workshop at the last minute and I am very pleased my husband persuaded me too. The 6 week course was amazing. I can honestly say that the week 2 practice has changed my life and enabled me to try to combat the daily anxiety and worry I deal with. If you haven’t signed up, and you have been considering it, then please do.. it’s important to look after ourselves.

 – Wendy, Isle of Man

I want to say a huge Thank You for having given me this fantastic opportunity to use my mind in a brand new, powerful way. I have thoroughly enjoyed our sessions and your gentle, calming presence has got a lot to do with it.

– Bruno, Isle of Man

I started the 6 week course not really knowing what to expect. Very quickly with Mike’s calm and caring manner I was able to fully immerse myself into a new world of mindfulness. This has given me a whole new perspective on life and now feel better equipped to take anything on with calm and ease. I now feel healthier and happier.

Thank you Mike.

 – Mark, Isle of Man

Mindfulness has helped my mental health which is just as important if not more so than physical health. I used to have an unhealthy relationship with thoughts, feelings & emotions but by learning why we shouldn’t take them seriously and practicing present moment attention I now feel much more free from angst and welcome the same thoughts, feelings & emotions with a smile. The course is great fun; I highly recommend and Mike’s alright too!

 – Tom, Isle of Man

I was aware of many of the concepts Mike was talking about, but these ideas are nothing unless you put them into practice. Mike gives you some background and then goes on to explain each practice in simple, easy to understand terms so that you can just get on with it.

– Ben, Isle of Man

Thank you for a really brilliant 6 week course.  It couldn’t have come at a more helpful time and it has completely changed my approach to dealing with stressful, challenging moments and in general helped me really appreciate the everyday by completely altering my perspective.  I can sense that with continued practice it has the potential to be truly liberating! 

– Beccy, Isle of Man

The monthly drop in sessions have had such a positive impact on my way of thinking. Heartache, trauma, physical pain, or the struggles of day to day life often consume our energy, may be without even realising and it’s something we can all relate to. I found mindfulness provided all the right tools to deal with this, it helped create a better connection with myself, learn to stay in the present moment and find little drops of enlightenment along the way. The sessions are welcoming, friendly and also a really nice way to meet people. It is a safe environment that allows you to share experiences; should you wish to do so. I seriously recommend just trying at least one class, it’s an absolute game changer!

– Aalish, Isle of Man

I just wanted to say thank you so much for teaching me mindfulness in such an interesting, relaxing and enjoyable way. I have always wanted to find a way to de-clutter my mind, to not constantly be living in my head and to be able to focus on and live with what is happening now rather than being flooded with thoughts of ‘what if….’ ,’ if only……’ etc. In the 6 weeks I have now developed a 10 minute routine every morning which sets me up for the day and is really changing how I feel and my outlook on life.

– Jacqui, London

I cannot thank you enough for the difference, encouragement and light the course has brought me, during what has been an extremely dark and difficult time.

 – Sharleen, Isle of Man

Mike’s 6 week course came at just the right time, and I’ve truly loved every minute of it. We learnt so much, including different Mindfulness practices, how to take time to simply sit and just ‘be’, to learning how to quieten the noise in our mind. As became more aware of our body, that we are NOT our thoughts and how to focus more on what is real and ‘present’ and what isn’t, all of which have been life changing.  I now appreciate how insignificant yet suffocating our thoughts can be and how hugely significant we all are as human beings, if we only chose to spend more time in a state of awareness. If you want to snap out of an old state of mind and awaken your mind and your body, Mike is the perfect alarm clock!

– Voirrey, Isle of Man

You made it easier for me, and I expect the rest if the group, to share our experiences throughout in an open and non-threatening environment.

– Susan, Isle of Man

I had promised my team the gift of Happiness so they had high expectations from Mike Kewley’s aptly named 2 hour workshop “How to be Happy”. I’m delighted to say that Mike delivered a very engaging workshop that inspired and challenged my team to reframe their pursuit of happiness. Through insights from his own journey and life observations Mike was able to connect with everyone and illustrate how mindfulness can help all of us. The exercises that Mike guided us through gave us practical experience of how each of us can face and overcome the challenges that life throws at us, and left us with invaluable tools for a happier future.

Mike delivered massive value in just two hours and it has been wonderful to see the positive effect he has had on my team. If you value your team, their well being or their happiness then you should definitely seek Mike Kewley out and have him come and speak to your team. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

– Gary Pierce, Owner of Hopes & Dreams Children’s Nurseries, Isle of Man

Thanks again for the great classes. They’re really helping me on my journey, there’s just something about an actual teacher that the books can’t match.

– Correy, USA

I have really enjoyed the course and it had been very helpful especially in my work life, those 10 breaths have been life savers especially during a very stressful day.

– Sheila, Isle of Man

The introductory course has provided me with a different perspective on our thoughts and the view that they don’t have to overcome you and I have gained new tools to deal with any anxiety that may come with them. From someone who was having almost daily anxiety attacks, dreading the tightness of the inward breath during each episode, I finished the course comfortable with both inward and out breath and the realisation that I hadn’t really had that tension since I made the mindfulness practise a regular part of my life. Couldn’t recommend the course more to anyone with anxiety and looking forward to continuing my practise.

– Katie, Isle of Man

Thank you for the course, I believe that is the start of new chapter. You have explained it in a clear and simple way, which enables to do the practices on a daily basis. Thank you again.

– Sian, Isle of Man

Thank you so much for everything you have taught me over the 6 week course. I’m really enjoying the mindfulness meditation and the compassion practice. I feel much calmer, and I’m finding myself with time to think before I react. Also I’m much more aware especially the time I spend with my kids which is priceless.

I’m seeing and appreciating things that I would of normally missed, by being distracted by my thoughts. Mike is very personable and uses relatable and funny explanations, which makes the course enjoyable as well really interesting.

– Amy, Isle of Man

It’s been about a year now since I did your course, and although I only came a couple of times, it acted as a foundation and a starting point to where I am today. Doing your course I knew what I needed to do, I knew, through the very brief periods of presence that I’d felt, that being mindful was essential for me. The most difficult thing, for me personally, was thinking that change would take time, ironically. But it doesn’t, you just do it.

Now.

– Phil, Isle of Man

After Mike’s 6 week Mindfulness course, I felt I had a reservoir of calm to call upon should someone press my buttons or a potentially stressful situation arise. I learned how to relax properly for the first time, and had the most creative and productive year so far!

On a personal level I find myself really in awe, more connected to this amazing universe, and tingling with aliveness! I totally recommend this course for anyone who is interested in being present in their own life!

– Laura, Isle of Man

Having sat the 6 Week Introduction to Mindfulness course in April, I felt like a new person. It really helped me to deal with some anxiety problems that I had been having in a way that nothing else I had tried had come close to doing.

The course makes something that, I think can be quite difficult to appreciate and to stick with on your own, very accessible and understandable. It taught me to be much more open and accepting of challenges, giving me a whole new perspective on the things that life throws at me.

Mike teaches some quite deep concepts in such a relatable and inspiring way, that I find myself truly excited about things that I have previously completely overlooked!

I cannot recommend either of these courses enough, and want to thank you Mike for opening my eyes to the incredible beauty that is all around us and that we are all a part of!

– Kylie, Isle of Man

Mike’s course on Mindfulness was insightful, fun, and informative. Mike has a lovely way of explaining this topic in a very real and everyday manner which makes Mindfulness very accessible for anyone interested in calming the mind and expanding consciousness.

– Sian, Isle of Man

Mindfulness has been like a door opening for me. Before the six weeks course, most of the time at work I was anxious to the point of feeling sick and the anxiety was causing very draining insomnia. Now after completing the course my anxiety levels are more under control and I’m sleeping a lot better as a result. I cannot recommend trying Mindfulness enough to anybody suffering with anxiety as its changed my life.

– Alan, Isle of Man

I would just like to say a big thank you, I had a wonderful time doing the course. I think you have a real gift as a teacher, as you made some really challenging and difficult topics easy to understand. I think it is only with practice and time that I will see and understand the true benefit of what I have learnt from you.

– Zelda, Isle of Man

Mike shows you how the constant noise in the background can be quietened and everything seems to soften, thoughts, tension, outlook. Thank you for making it simple, I am beginning to enjoy myself!

– Dawn, Isle of Man

I joined Mike’s 6 week mindfulness class after seeing him at a taster talk. He was so inspiring I felt it would benefit me greatly. It has! I suffer from anxiety attacks and Mike has helped me so much. I am so much calmer and less focussed on myself and more on the world and other people.

The meditation which I now do daily has made an enormous difference to my outlook. I am so much more positive and have found I now accept challenges and daily problems with a calm understanding that helps me get through situations in a much more relaxed manner.

Thank you Mike.

– Ginny, Isle of Man

I would just like to say how much I enjoyed the six week Mindfulness Course ran by Mike. He is a natural teacher and the course was inspiring, challenging and highly enjoyable. It was something I gained a lot from and the techniques learned are something I intend to continue with. Highly recommended.

– Adrian, Isle of Man

I am finding the course amazing; so beneficial! Since we started I’ve had a few situations that would normally make me into an anxious blob; however I’ve been able to use mindfulness to get me through. So thank you.

– Anna, Isle of Man

Mike Kewley’s down to earth and personable approach demystifies the subject and makes it available for everyone. He shares his wisdom, humour and himself, and guides people through a simple breathing technique, that if used regularly, is life changing.

I have now been practicing mindfulness for about three months, and my mood has just lifted. I don’t dwell on the past or have anxiety anymore, I seem to be stronger in myself, and less affected by negative people and situations. My relationship with my children particularly seems to have blossomed, as I am less wrapped up in myself. Things that used to make me angry, I often now just laugh at. I feel more balanced and relaxed generally. I recommend Mike’s Mindfulness course for everyone!

– Laura, Isle of Man

I have just completed a 6 week introduction course for mindfulness meditation with Mike and would like to thank Mike for his friendly and informative approach to meditation. I found the course really inspiring and would recommend mindfulness meditation to anyone who wishes to bring calm into their busy life.

– Myra, Isle of Man

I have just finished the 6 week course with Mike and found it very inspiring. Mike explained mindfulness in a very simple manner and i must say I was sorry to see it end. I would recommend this course to every one! Thanks Mike.

– Dominic, Ireland

Mike’s 6 week Introduction to Mindfulness course completely changed my outlook on life and I would definitely recommend it to anyone with an open mind.

I realised that my thought process has become a creature of habit. But allowing a combination of mindfulness & my energies into my life, it has shown me a peaceful, nurturing mind set. Doesn’t happen overnight, watch out for distractions, but most importantly absorb and work with who/what you can.

I attended your workshop yesterday thank you, it was a brilliant afternoon. You taught us practical skills with humour and you were so down to earth.

– Katy, Isle of Man

The meditation has been difficult at times, but I don’t think I would be where I am if I had not met with you and learnt the mindfulness practices.

– James, Isle of Man

I just wanted to say I found the course fascinating and I didn’t want it to end. I found you a brilliant speaker and very helpful. And I know the techniques and ideas will help me in everyday of my life and have already helped me with everyday challenges and life events. All of the course was brilliant and I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone.

Keep up your fantastic work Mike.

I took part in the 6 weeks mindfulness course and it has really helped me to get in tune with myself. At the start I really struggled to sit still and mediate for anything more than a minute without being distracted. However, six weeks down the line after practicing most days I am now able to sit for over 20 minutes and I feel that it has really helped me relax. I am now more calm and much less stressed. It has also helped me recognise that I need to be more responsible for myself and for my actions and words. I feel like it is the start of something really amazing for me. I would recommend it to anyone.

Mike is a great teacher and he is really approachable so I know that I can always ask him if I am struggling with something in particular. I really can’t wait to take part in more workshops, courses and retreats in the future. It’s amazing how much I have grown spiritually in such a short space of time.

Mindfulness has shown me how to see the world for what it is, the only real way to find happiness is when the mind is still. By doing this practice you start to see beauty in all things and in all people. Since doing this I have been able to realise how hard it can be for all human beings sometimes and when someone is suffering I can be there for them, instead of being dragged down by them. This is so liberating not to be affected by others suffering.

– Alex, Isle of Man

The message is simple, almost so simple that at first you don’t believe something so easy could have such a profound effect on your everyday life. I found the mindfulness course gave me the chance to relax and reflect. Mike is a great teacher, putting you immediately at ease and delivering the message with clarity and humour. I would recommend his classes and workshops to anyone who is stressed, anxious or simply looking for another way of being with life.

This six week course has literally transformed my life and I would recommend it to everyone without exception. It can only do one thing and that is awaken your soul. Life is the here and now, it’s not yesterday or tomorrow it is now. We are all too stressed, too busy, too frantic and then one day we wake up and realise we are wasting precious time. Or maybe we don’t wake up. Mindfulness allows us to be free and to relax and smile. I shall continue on my Mindfulness journey as I feel this is only the beginning!

You are an amazingly talented teacher, a lovely balance of humour and insight which is invaluable!

– Denis, Isle of Man

I have attended the Mindfulness drop-in sessions for a few months now and came hoping to learn how to better deal with daily worries and stresses that come from thinking about the past and the future. The sessions have helped a lot. They are friendly and very welcoming. After each drop-in session, I notice the benefits of meditation more and more and how mindfulness affects different aspects of my life in very positive ways.

– Sam, Isle of Man

The day retreat affords you the time to absorb the taught practice, and fully experience what is meant by Mindfulness. The combination of wonderful stories, meditative practice by a professional and compassionate teacher, facilitates an experience that promotes personal growth. I will certainly attend more of Mike’s courses, as I was fully supported in uncovering the beauty of everyday life, as it inherently is.

– Anthea, Isle of Man

The private session was rewarding. Focusing on the breath entering and leaving your body and then exploring every inch of your body, observing all the sensations you encounter, thought subsides and relaxation occurs. The overall feeling is of benevolence and clarity.

I can highly recommend the session.

– Nigel, Isle of Man

I found the mini retreat a unique experience, a chance to spend the day with like minded people in a relaxing atmosphere and use the skills learned during the weekly sessions to really tune into the mind and body and go a bit deeper. At the end of the day I was left with the feeling that I had discovered something that most of the world is still oblivious to and that experience is priceless.

– Michelle, Isle of Man

I thoroughly enjoyed the course and will endeavour to keep practicing. I feel a lot calmer in myself and my focus on the now, rather than on what has gone on and what could happen, has certainly given me a new perspective on life and calmed my thoughts.

I am actually sleeping better and deeper.

– Clare, Isle of Man

My everyday life, like many others, is hectic. Juggling everything has meant paying a toll migraines and chronic pain in my shoulders. I didn’t go to Mike for this reason, I went to give someone a lift and rather than wait for an hour and a half in the freezing cold to take them home, I joined the class. I was pleasantly surprised to find that after each session I came home feeling really relaxed and good. By the middle of the sessions I started to feel real benefits in my everyday life. By the end I was determined to build on what I had been taught. It was an illuminating and inspirational course and I would recommend it to anyone.
