Mindfulness practices in Manchester

“I’ve just worked out that I’ve been a patient at Altrincham Dental Practice for over 45 years! And I don’t live in the area any longer, but am happy to travel. Surly, this speaks for itself. The Practice has evolved over the years. But the service remains the same, namely consistently very good and the team are always very caring. I decided to write this post today, as I had a slight pain in my gum yesterday evening and I noticed that a crown had become lose. I phoned the surgery this morning and an appointment was scheduled for early afternoon. All sorted. Now that’s good service! Thanks to Dr Hashim and the team!”

“A very friendly, knowledgeable and accessible practice. My dog was treated so gently and kindly, I was worried he was going to be afraid but he loved the vet (Christian) and the tiny treats he was rewarded with. This bit is important (especially if you have a busy life!)! It’s a super easy booking in process, just register your preferred appointment time online (in my case out of hours the night before) which is then confirmed the following morning. It’s very near Tatton park and Knutsford town centre, and has a small car park which is very easy if you have a pushchair or wheelchair. 100% recommended!”

“Best place to go for a sports massage or deep tissue massage. Every time I have been it has helped so much.”

“Gareth has represented me through a challenging divorce settlement and access agreement. He is very thorough & offered great advice throughout the process whilst allowing me the freedom to come to quite a unique but agreeable settlement. His advice, not limited to the legalities of the process, was always fair and his help during a very difficult period was invaluable. Gareth is very professional in his role while remaining empathetic & supportive during what inevitably is a very emotional & difficult time for everyone involved. I have no hesitation in recommending him to represent you through the process.”

“I came to see Pam when struggling to sleep, during a very stressful period. Pam explained to me how the body reacts to stress and why this can affect sleep. She then taught me to relax and switch off, and taught me not to try and go to sleep - instead just to let go and relax. It became easier to do this as the weeks went on and I haven't suffered with insomnia since. I've felt much calmer and more positive generally. I have recommended Pam to friends (who also found success) and would say to anyone with insomnia or anxiety to give it a try. Pam explained the process very clearly to me and her gentle manner very quickly put me at ease. The sessions take place in Pam's home which is a very relaxing place where you can immediately feel comfortable. You're provided with CDs - free of charge - to continue to practice with at home, so that you can continue the work you do in the sessions. It was a very positive experience and the only thing that has worked for me. I couldn't recommend Pam more.”

“Highly recommend Manchester Business School. The quality of the teaching is exemplary - you don’t need to go to Oxbridge for a good education. I find that many of the tutors are not only very knowledgeable in their subjects but they are also very personable and make the classes engaging and some like to even add a bit of humour here and there which helps to jeep your attention. I don’t think I will ever forget the face to face workshops we had with the mba director Xavier who is a complete master of economics (strategy A) and so knowledgeable he can speak for 3 days without notes or presentations in a structured and engaging manner - he made economics and game theory very interesting (whereas in my bachelors of business elsewhere, I did not like economics). The GMBA has small class learning despite a large cohort size so you will be in workshop class sizes from 20-30 people which gives plenty of opportunity for interactive learning. The building itself is modern and everything is brand new. They offer a broad range of electives in pretty much everything business related you could want to learn about from blockchain, to negotiation skills to work psychology. The workload is intense but the live residentials included graded elements which means you get a chunk of your graded work out of the way in these weeks. The course balances face to face with online learning, essays and live presentations. There is a lot of emphasis on teamwork which can be challenging at times but is definitely great experience and builds your interpersonal skills. You get lunch and desert included at the live workshops. I recommend booking hotels close by as you have to work late some nights and come in earlier in the mornings sometimes to finalise presentations. You have up to 5 years to complete the course which is helpful if you need to delay due to personal circumstances. You also get a dedicated MBA careers service with advisors which you can tap into whenever you need it / if you need it. I have met some great people studying at Manchester - there are some very competent and lovely people in the cohorts.”

“Great place to learn”

“Modern outlook & training program based on Traditional Chinese Martial Arts”

“The best capoeira classes, now in South Manchester, by world renowned capoeira Master Mestre Papa-Leguas. Friendly atmosphere, all levels and backgrounds welcome. Also check out the classes in Manchester's city centre.”

“Great place to learn lindy hop as a begginer and continue your journey for everyone else. Lovely teachers and lessons each week, and a really fun social dance each week too. Kevin and the gang are superb.”

“Great night out lovely people”

“Both my children have now been through the baby sensory classes and both Becky and Abby have been amazing. Highly recommend this baby class to every new mum.”

“I have found the team here to be helpful, friendly and very kind. Always a welcoming environment with space to clear my head and process what I need to.”

“Would highly recommend Bernie for anyone who is struggling. Warm friendly and definitely knows her stuff!”

“Saiqa is very good at what she does. She is very understanding, knowledgeable and works from her heart. She will not make you feel like its a business or work only, you instantly have a connection with her. I would highly recommend.”

“Holly is a wonderful hypnotherapist who helped me over several sessions. I would definitely recommend Holly who is kind, compassionate and patient as well as being professional and very good at what she does.”

“I found Toni through Google search. I did work with her for about 3 months dealing with the mostly my anxiety around being in a relationship with someone. I struggled to open up my heart since day 1 and I had no idea why. Learning about EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) and Hypnosis and applying it to my life has made a huge change. She then worked with me on Regression and uncovered the deep-seated unconscious fears & beliefs that were subconsciously holding me back from committing. It was amazing what we discovered about my childhood (stuff I was totally unaware that was holding me back). I have worked with a traditional psychologist for years and had made little progress. Working with Toni as a coach as completely changed my outlook on life and relationships. She is kind, caring and supportive. She is easy to get to know and makes you feel extremely comfortable. I felt supported in every step of my journey even outside of the coaching sessions. When I had questions I was able to email Toni and she replies back to you within the day. The services and skills Toni offers are unlike any other! If you want to see results and make serious change in your life, I would highly recommend speaking with her. People have seen a massive difference in me and I’m doing so much better in my job. Because of Toni, I enjoy greater satisfaction in my life. She has showed me path to self care and self love that I never knew existed and am now so thankful for!”

“I can not recommend Marina and Peace of Mind highly enough, she had help me through some very troubled times with kindness and compassion, resulting in a very positive outcome. Thank you Marina and Peace of Mind”

“Loved volunteering here”

“I genuinely can't thank Aoiffe enough for the help and support that she has provided me throughout our sessions. My stress, anxiety and depression had got to the point where I didn't know where to turn, I'd been trying to push through for years. Then I found the Happiness In Mind website. Deciding to get help has been the best decision I could have made, that and asking Aoiffe if she could help me. If you are debating whether or not to seek help then take it from me it can change your life for the better. And you are searching in the right place!. Aoiffe has helped me remember my worth as a person, my self compassion and regain confidence I never thought I'd have again. It's been a tough journey, (and I'm still on it) but the support and guidance I have received has been more amazing than I could have ever imagined and my life is better because of it. I will be forever grateful.”

“Studied hear for three years after going to university in London for 2 months and leaving as I knew it wasn't the right course. I came by this course by chance and it was the best decision I made. During the three years I managed to secure work experience (Paid) on Feature Films, Commercials, Documentaries, and TV Shows. Even had the opportunity to work for Burberry Fashion, and with Keira Knightley and Ralph Fiennes. Without the first opportunity from MFS I'd never have been able to have those opportunities. The skills and knowledge I learnt from this school have helped so much even in experiences where I may have not been working in Film and TV. Yes, the tutors can be hard on you, however it's because they know you aren't working to your full potential and they want you to grow and be the best YOU can be. The equipment they have is also unbelievable and they have fantastic relationships with kit hire companies giving you even more experience.”

“Thekla is a brilliant therapist and I would highly recommend her. She is kind and caring, patient and understanding. In a word she will be your advocate. She’s on your side she makes you see things from another angle and she’s routing for you for to succeed. You can tell she does this because it’s her calling not just a job. She has helped me develop in more ways than I can say. Thank you doesn’t seem enough but thank you. If you are looking for help, look no further.”

“The absolute definition of practical Wing Chun can be found right here. Sifu Swift has had years of training from the best. No nonsense direct practitioner.”

“I have just finished studying the Professional Musicianship course at BIMM Manchester. I can’t recommend BIMM enough, my experience was excellent thanks to the staff and tutors. BIMM say their tutors all are experienced industry professionals and this is very, very true! I have learnt from their experiences and they have helped me to grow as a person and musician. Having tutors who were amazing at their craft and knew what they were doing really helped inspire me. The student support staff at BIMM are lovely and beyond helpful, they always go out of their way to help you even if they need to do research in order to help. This applies to the academic staff and the careers team, I have always felt comfortable asking them for help and whilst at BIMM have never felt lonely or lost. As cheesy as it sounds, I truly believe that you get out what you put in. So if you hide away, you might not get as many opportunity or meet as many people as if you put your self out there. This shouldn’t be confused with BIMM not doing their job, this is really down to the individual.”
