Mindfulness for Working Minds: A Buddhist-Inspired Path to Resilience

Mindfulness for Working Minds is a unique 6-week online program designed by experienced teachers and trained practitioners at the Dhamma Centre. This course harmonises time-tested Buddhist training methods with science-backed mindfulness strategies to offer a truly integrative and practical approach to stress relief and emotional resilience.

Built on the foundations of Theravāda Buddhist wisdom and informed by modern neuroscience and psychology, this course offers a systematic and progressive path tailored to the needs of busy professionals. Whether you're completely new to mindfulness or seeking to deepen an existing practice, you’ll be guided through a step-by-step process that not only helps manage stress and burnout but also fosters deep mental clarity, compassion, and balance.

What sets this course apart is its balance between authenticity and accessibility: ancient meditation principles are taught in a secular-friendly, workplace-relevant format, while preserving the depth of Dhamma-informed insight and wisdom. Each week builds on the last, helping you steadily grow your capacity for calm, focus, and wise action in the midst of everyday life.

The Spirit of Dāna

At the Dhamma Centre, we believe in making meaningful teachings accessible to all. In keeping with the Buddhist tradition of Dāna (generosity), this course is offered on a tiered contribution model rather than a fixed commercial price.

In the Buddhist tradition, teachings are offered freely — and supported by the heartfelt generosity of those who value them. While we suggest the above rates to ensure sustainability. If you need further support, please contact us in confidence.

This approach supports financial inclusion while ensuring that the time, care, and resources that go into delivering this course are valued appropriately.

Expression of Interest

To ensure a supportive and interactive experience, the group size is limited to a maximum of 12 participants. This small-group format allows for meaningful connections with the teacher and fellow participants, with space for personal guidance and shared learning.
