Inspiring Training with Aston

I recently completed the 5-day Mindfulness Now Teacher Training with Aston Colley at St John’s College, Oxford. The venue was beautiful and peaceful, with a wonderful group of participants. The course was well structured, and Aston was an outstanding tutor, very professional, supportive, and inspiring. I left feeling confident and motivated. I highly recommend this training.

A truly outstanding and transformative course

I had the pleasure, and privilege, of attending the in-person 5 day Teacher Training held in the magnificent arena of St. John’s College, at Oxford University. This was a truly inspirational, transformative and, dare I say, life changing course which I wholeheartedly recommend. Led by an outstanding Tutor - Aston Colley, the course was expertly delivered using a variety of teaching methods designed to cater for all learning styles and individual preferences. I particularly enjoyed the group discussions and periods of inquiry, the meditations, gentle yoga sessions and role plays. There was a palpable feeling of warmth and nurture in the room and I felt listened to, respected and safe. The experiential nature of the course was greatly appreciated and is one I will endeavour to embody and engender as I go on to establish my own mindfulness practice. The calm, insightful, professional and ever mindful manner in which Aston managed group dynamics was a masterclass in itself and one that I and other aspiring mindfulness teachers would do well to emulate. I would also like to thank fellow group members - who have become trusted friends - for their generosity of spirit, their sharing of experiences, expertise and contacts and their kindness and camaraderie. Thank you Aston and Kelly for facilitating such a wonderful course.

Valuable program for personal and professional growth

As a yoga teacher and practitioner, I found the Mindfulness Now Teacher Training program in Oxford to be valuable and rewarding. I appreciated the balance of learning approaches in the program, which included interactive collaboration in class discussions and experiential work with peers. Aston's calm demeanor rooted in deep knowledge and experience, created a safe and supportive atmosphere for learning. This program helped me deepen my understanding of mindfulness and gave me the foundation for broadening and enriching my skills that I will apply in my programs and classes. I recommend this program for both personal and professional benefits.

Training with Aston in Oxford

The course at St Johns College with Aston was a positive, thought provoking and interesting week. As a therapist, I feel that the time spent learning and developing skills was time well spent. My take-aways from the course will undoubtedly benefit me personally and professionally as well as being hugely beneficial to those that I share with in clinic and beyond.

Wonderful experience with Aston @ Oxford

I spent 5 days with Aston & colleagues at St Johns College Oxford and have gained a huge amount from the course, not only during the week, but also after also, finding a deeper sense of presence and calm within myself. I spent a lot of time in the gardens of the college before and after the day's training and welcomed the whole week as a retreat as far as possible. Many people commented on how they learned as much from Aston's demeanour and calm as they did from the course material. The course beautifully complements the wellbeing coaching I do and I look forward to exploring ways to use what I have learned this week, in particular the new ability to guide different meditations for others ... thank you!!

Excellent training

I recently completed the 5-day Mindfulness Now teacher training at Tawstock House and became certified in July 2025. Genuinely one of the most enriching and supportive training experiences I’ve ever had.The venue at Tawstock House was stunning—calm, beautiful, and perfect for the retreat-style learning environment. The course was structured with great care and flowed in a way that matched my learning needs.Maddie and Nick, our tutors, were outstanding. Their calm, warm, and encouraging approach created a safe and fun space to learn and grow. The content was well-delivered, backed with excellent resources, and the group energy was just right—supportive, reflective, and connected.I’ve since launched a local weekly mindfulness drop-in group, and I feel fully prepared and confident thanks to the training and follow-up materials.This is a professional, heart-led programme that I would absolutely recommend to anyone wanting to teach mindfulness with care, authenticity, and clarity.

5 days of bliss

Just returned from the in-person 5 day teaching course. It has truly been the highlight of my year so far. A really insightful course led by knowledgeable and engaging instructors. I made strong connections and felt very supported and relaxed throughout the week. If you are on the fence about booking, don't be, go for it! You won't be disappointed.

Learning in a beautiful setting

I attended the Mindfulness Now teacher training in Devon for 5 days in March 2025. It was inspirational. The teaching was clear and delivered in a professional but friendly way. However, I have learnt so much more by reflecting, practising for my recorded submissions and submitting my question paper. I'm now ready to teach and learn more. Thank you Nick & Maddy.

I attended a 5-day mindfulness teachers training course in Oxford in April 2025 and I learned so much from Aston Colley and his colleagues. A very professional team who knows ins and outs of mindfulness- based interventions and teach with dedication and professionalism.

An amazing experiential Learning Experience

I attended the five-day Vocational Mindfulness Practitioner course and was amazed by its professional delivery. The content covered the theory and evidence-based elements. Still, more importantly, it exposed us to some wonderful mindful movement, role play, and the opportunity to be curious about our practice and journey moving forward. Aston, our coach, was exceptional in guiding us through the process with great expertise and compassion. While the course was a fantastic learning opportunity, it was also a space for personal meditation practice and self-reflection.I look forward to completing the self-directed study and practice so I can develop my practice in this amazing vocation, which complements my profession as a mental health nurse.

An altogether wonderful experience

I attend a Mindfulness Now teacher training course with Rachel and Tony in Manchester. The course was designed to deepen my understanding of mindfulness while honing my teaching skills. I found the whole experience very rewarding. Rachel and Tony's teaching styles were encouraging and 'trauma informed.' It was just a lovely environment to be in. Since attending the course and completing my assessment, I have felt that I have truly grown as a person, embodied the mindfulness attitudes and I am now in a position to pass on the benefits of mindfulness to others. Thank you so much to Mindfulness Now for helping me realise my purpose!

A glimpse of my best life.

Having had a grounding in Buddhist mindfulness over the last few years, I was very much looking for an insight into how to deliver mindfulness training in a secular way and the week far exceeded my expectations. I felt that the course perfectly complemented my existing knowledge and furthermore opened up to me the much more accessible methods, practices and exercises I sought.

Most fulfilling online course I've ever enrolled on

From start to finish, the whole course was a joy. I've never known a day online to go so fast. The tutors were experts in their field and could hold all course students with a lightness, respect and wisdom that I was in awe of. Highly recommend.

What an amazing course

Wow! Mindfulness Now a great course run by such lovely instructors. I found Zoom as a platform for the main course body worked really well especially the use of breakout rooms. The course was a good pace and the timings of the breaks . It felt a safe place where we got a chance to ask questions and give feedback with no pressure. We met so many likewise students from all different backgrounds even across the globe, yet still felt a connection to everyone. We came away with a super ongoing network and support group. Thank you

Mindfulness Now in Devon - Fantastic!

Having just done the Mindfulness Now teacher training course in Devon, I would thoroughly recommend the course. The trainers, Nick and Maddy, are very experienced and taught the course with wisdom and kindness. The teaching is interesting and varied, with theory, stories, poems, meditations, and mindful movement. We worked in pairs and in small groups as well as in the main the group of 15. The course covers teaching mindfulness to individuals or groups, whether in school, in the community, online or in corporate world. I came along unsure as to whether I would actually follow through and teach mindfulness, but I’m definitely going to now and I’m really excited about it.

Rachel was a wonderful teacher trainer, highly recommended!

Rachel was a wonderful, warm teacher trainer and made us all feel very welcome, grounded and listened to over the course of the training week. Likewise, Tony was fantastic when he joined and they really complemented each others' teaching styles.The course was really well structured and had the right balance of practical vocational training and learning. There was a lot of content to cover but the pacing felt full and engaging without being overwhelming. On a personal note, the whole week was such a wonderful experience connecting with the other trainees, people from all walks of life, and was truly transformative and profound at times. Likewise completing the assessment was really enjoyable and the whole course has deepened my own practice and understanding tremendously. Highly recommended!
