A mindfulness course is a structured programme, usually eight weekly sessions of two to two-and-a-half hours, that teaches mindfulness meditation and how to apply it to everyday life. The two best-known formats are Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), which includes elements of cognitive therapy and was developed to prevent depression relapse.
NICE recommends MBCT for adults with recurrent depression who are currently well, and it is offered on the NHS in some areas. MBSR has good evidence for reducing stress. Courses involve home practice of around 30 to 45 minutes a day, so they work best when you can commit to the full eight weeks; many centres also run a day of silent practice midway through.
An eight-week course costs about £200 to £450 at a wellness centre, with concessions often available, and online versions are cheaper. Choose a teacher listed with the British Association of Mindfulness-Based Approaches (BAMBA). If you are currently in an acute episode of depression, trauma or crisis, speak to your GP first; a good teacher will hold a pre-course conversation to check the timing is right.
