Mindfulness & Wellbeing Practitioner & Coach
Foster clarity, resilience and holistic wellbeing — in yourself and in the people you support.
About the programme
Evidence-informed mindfulness techniques combined with coaching methodology. The programme integrates ICF Core Competencies and is built around RISENLEAD's signature PAUSE™ coaching model.
Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention to the present moment, on purpose and without judgement. Practised regularly, it helps people manage stress, focus better and respond rather than react — which is why it’s now used everywhere from clinics to boardrooms.
This practitioner and coach certification combines evidence-informed mindfulness techniques with professional coaching methodology. It integrates the ICF Core Competencies and is built around RISENLEAD’s signature PAUSE™ coaching model, a simple structure for mindful coaching conversations.
You’ll deepen your own practice, learn to guide others through mindfulness exercises safely and ethically, and leave ready to support clients, teams or whole organisations as a wellbeing coach or Wellness Ambassador.
The PAUSE™ coaching model
