I sat with my client as she reflected on her chronic pain that was steadily increasing and becoming more and more unmanageable. She did not want to increase her medications any further and was becoming more and more despondent and
You might have a quick answer to this question…what is the purpose of mindfulness? Perhaps it’s more peace, less stress, less anxiety, more focus and concentration. For sure they are all true and important. Mindfulness is a great way to
I am so happy to be back writing to you on all the things I love and have found, through experimentation, to help overcome anxiety and live from a place of greater ease and happiness. I was ‘off the radar’
Sit still for a moment and notice. Is there a voice inside your head? What is it saying? If you are alive, you have a voice. Maybe one or two, even a chorus of various committees telling you how
“She’s so.. he always… she’ll never… I always… ” The list goes on. Have you ever stopped to notice how much you assume, judge and predict the world based on the past? It’s a natural human tendency. We had to

I highly recommend working with Madeleine to learn her mindfulness techniques to reduce anxiety & stress and to help build resilience. Madeleine courageously helps others through sharing her own story. She is a compassionate, thought provoking leader- warrior.

“I can’t say enough good things about Madeleine Eames’ weekly Mindfulness drop in class. Madeleine is a profoundly gifted and compassionate teacher. I know I speak for many others when I say that the mindfulness lessons she shared with us made each of our lives brighter, more tolerable, and I’ve heard it said more than once by participants that they wish they’d known the simple technique of being mindful years earlier.”
Madeleine offered a variety of techniques on mindfulness and breathing. It was not a one technique fits all workshop. Working in a group also showed me that I was not alone in my anxiety. The group felt comfortable enough to share their stories, as did Madeleine.
I will always cherish the process and personal growth I was able to achieve through working with Madeleine. Her gentle and knowledgeable approach to exploration was a comfort. She both modeled and supported my development in acceptance of what is, for me, through mindfullness and breathwork that I continue to practice today.
