Online Morning of Mindfulness Practice
Sunday 11th May 2025 | 9am – 1pm | €25
Facilitated by Erica Balfour
You are warmly invited to join us for a nourishing online morning of mindfulness practice. This half-day mini retreat is open to anyone who has completed one of our 8-week MBSR, MBCT, or MSC courses—or who has an established mindfulness practice.
Retreat time offers us the chance to step out of our daily routines and reconnect with ourselves in a deeper, more intentional way. With gentle guidance from Erica, we will be guiding us through a variety of practices interwoven with plenty of space and silence, creating the conditions to meet our experience with presence, awareness, and kindness.
Through sustained mindfulness practice, we may begin to notice our habits of reactivity and self-judgment—and, with compassion, learn to relate to ourselves and our inner life with greater understanding.
This is a space to pause, reconnect, and practice allowing, acceptance and simply being. As best we can.
All are welcome.
If you have any questions, feel free to get in touch.

Erica holds an MSc in Psychotherapy and is Co-Director of The Mindfulness Centre for Professional Training. She facilitates trauma-informed Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and Mindful Communication courses for the general public, in workplace settings, and for organisations such as AWARE. Erica enjoys her work as a teacher trainer and supervisor, with accreditation in the MBI-TAC framework for assessing and supporting mindfulness-based teaching.
Erica supports clients navigating a range of challenges including anxiety, stress, depression, abuse, grief, and difficulties in family and relationships. She has particular experience and interest in working with trauma, ADHD, autism (including AuDHD), eco-anxiety, and eco-grief.
Her approach is integrative and flexible, drawing on Person-Centred Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and other modalities to meet the unique needs of each individual. Erica believes that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all process, and works collaboratively to find an approach that feels supportive and effective for each client.
