I have qualifications in nursing\, exercise and fitness\, clinical nutrition\, counselling\, Coaching\, TRE® (Tension and Trauma Release). I have recently completed the 2-year postgraduate certification training in Mindfulness-Based Interventions offered by the University of Stellenbosch’s medical faculty. \nI have worked in the field of health promotion and wellness for over 25 years. Over the years my work has evolved to include a variety of modalities\, which I draw from to empower people to journey towards optimal health and wholeness. \nMy mindfulness journey began in 2008 when I participated in the 8-week MBSR programme. Since then\, mindfulness has become an integral part of my life. I regularly attend silent retreats\, participate in mindfulness programmes and attend a weekly mindfulness group to support my practice and ongoing learning.” \nANN BOTHWELL PATON: \n“I have been working as a counsellor for nearly 10 years\, having trained in both London and Cape Town. I currently work at Hope House and in private practice\, although one of my roles is as a supervisor and trainer with a refugee peer counselling project\, Adonis Musati here in Wynberg. My original career also started in the NPO world\, where I worked with a literacy project\, interested on contributing to teachers’ training\, and pupils’ access to libraries in Alexandra township in Johannesburg. \nHaving focused primarily on educational issues earlier on\, my interest in psychology has seen further training (Psy Hons) and working with the Centre of Applied Jungian studies\, Lifeline (trauma)\, Hospice (bereavement\, grief and loss)\, and Willowtree\, London (child therapy). This training culminated in the postgraduate certification offered by the University of Stellenbosch’s medical faculty on Mindfulness-Based Interventions. \nWhat is Mindfulness?\nEmeritus Professor of Medicine Jon Kabat-Zinn\, the scientist\, writer and meditation teacher who pioneered bringing mindfulness into the mainstream of medicine and society\, defines mindfulness as “the awareness that arises by paying attention on purpose\, in the present moment and non-judgmentally”. Through mindfulness practices (various forms of meditation) we can learn to wake up to the present moment. \nMindfulness has its origins in Buddhism in the East but today is applied in a non-religious way the world over because it has been shown to counteract stress and help people live happier\, healthier lives with reduced psychological and physical symptoms. This is borne out by current neuroscientific research – studies show that regular meditation practice can produce structural and functional changes in the brain in as little as 8 weeks.

I currently work at Hope House and in private practice\, although one of my roles is as a supervisor and trainer with a refugee peer counselling project\, Adonis Musati here in Wynberg. My original career also started in the NPO world\, where I worked with a literacy project\, interested on contributing to teachers’ training\, and pupils’ access to libraries in Alexandra township in Johannesburg. \nHaving focused primarily on educational issues earlier on\, my interest in psychology has seen further training (Psy Hons) and working with the Centre of Applied Jungian studies\, Lifeline (trauma)\, Hospice (bereavement\, grief and loss)\, and Willowtree\, London (child therapy). This training culminated in the postgraduate certification offered by the University of Stellenbosch’s medical faculty on Mindfulness-Based Interventions. \nWhat is Mindfulness?\nEmeritus Professor of Medicine Jon Kabat-Zinn\, the scientist\, writer and meditation teacher who pioneered bringing mindfulness into the mainstream of medicine and society\, defines mindfulness as “the awareness that arises by paying attention on purpose\, in the present moment and non-judgmentally”.
