Mindfulness Habits

Staff Mindfulness Programme 2025

Mindfulness has been shown to be effective for reducing stress in the workplace.

NHSGGC is committed to supporting Mindfulness approaches with staff to enable them to gain skills and knowledge about Mindfulness. 

We are offering a three stage approach: 

·       Mindfulness Tiny Habits

·       Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction

·       Maintaining a Mindfulness Practice

To access the eight week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course we are asking staff to join the three week Mindfulness Tiny Habits course to get a taste of mindfulness and see if it is for you.

Stage one: Mindfulness Tiny Habits

Staff will be supported to develop mindfulness habits over a three week period by experienced mindfulness facilitators, who are also NHSGGC staff. This will offer an opportunity to get an initial feel of how mindfulness might benefit you, and explore how mindfulness might fit in to your day. 

Staff will meet with the mindfulness tutor online using MS Teams once a week to discuss their experience. This will also provide an opportunity to explore any challenges encountered and how you might build on what you are already doing.

Registration is now open for a choice of 4 Tiny Habits groups:

Mondays 12 pm until 1 pm starting on 18^th August

Tuesdays 12 pm until 1 pm starting on19th August

Thursdays 6 pm until 7 pm starting on 21^st August
