Mindfulness For Life Coaching with Gareth
Mindfulness for Life is a practical six-week course that helps you feel calmer, more aware and more able to meet daily life with choice. Mindfulness means paying attention on purpose, in the present moment and without judgement. You do not need to clear your mind or stop thought. You learn to notice what is here, then return to the breath as a simple anchor. Across the course, we look at the shift from automatic pilot to conscious choice; from analysing to sensing; from striving to accepting; and from dwelling on the past or fearing the future to living in the here and now. You will learn to spot stress, slow down racing thoughts and create a gap in which a wiser response can grow. We also explore patience, trust, non-judgement, letting go, gratitude, self-reliance and the learner’s mind.
Each session blends clear teaching, guided practice and simple ways to use mindfulness while eating, walking, working, resting, talking, caring and managing chores. The aim is not to be perfect. It is to build a kinder, steadier and more nourishing way of relating to yourself, other people and the world. With regular practice, mindfulness can support calm, focus, perspective, emotional balance, compassion and a stronger sense that you have choices. Practice brings steadiness, clarity and peace. Learn how to be here, now, and then this becomes a toolkit for life!
This is a 6-session programme, with payment in advance.

Transformative Life Coaching with Enfys
Transformative Life Coaching is a different approach to ‘transformation’. All true change happens from the inside out. I work by empowering people like you to get better at being ‘you’; to discover the truest, most authentic version of yourself. You on your best day, and to be that version of yourself much more often. This way of working isn’t goal-oriented and might appear gentler or less specific than performance coaching, but it is actually more powerful as a result. We are making changes at the source level rather than at the incremental action level.
During the process, we work to understand the interplay between the Three Principles: Mind, Consciousness and Thought. Imagine the analogy of the ‘Mind’ as the projector in a cinema. A projector is just a white light that beams out into space; into nothing. We only become aware of the projector when we have a screen. So the screen is our ‘Consciousness’, or our awareness. ‘Thought’ is the movie. And so, you have the indiscriminate interplay of Mind, Consciousness, and Thought. We need these three elements to give us our subjective experience. They interact with each other to create our experience of the world. This process helps these components to work together harmoniously, enabling people to transform into their best selves.
This is a 6-session programme, with payment in advance.

Clinic
The Alchemy Life Therapy Clinic is 100% online.
We have been involved in international research since 2015 proving the efficacy of our blend of Solution Focused Therapy. This research started before the global pandemic and continued through and beyond the various lockdowns. The research also proved there was no drop off in effectiveness when working online.
Many people prefer to do this work from the comfort of their own homes. They don’t have to battle through traffic, find parking and then battle that traffic on the way home afterwards.
