About the teacher

Hi, my name is Cath Ashby and I have been teaching mindfulness since 2020. I have felt the benefits of mindfulness in my own life after doing my first 8-week course through an NHS Pain Clinic many years ago.

I am a BAMBA registered teacher (British Association of Mindfulness-based Approaches) accredited with the Mindfulness Association.

I look forward to meeting you!
