Some of my Favourite Mindfulness Resources

“To attain knowledge, add things every day. To attain wisdom, subtract things every day.”

~ Lao Tzu

The resources offered in this section have been gathered over many years and I have found them helpful on my journey. Some may resonate with you, and inevitably some will not.

I will add to this bank of resources over time and hope you find them useful.
