Mindfulness-based Programs for Anxiety, Rumination, and Emotional Reactivity

Evidence-based, structured, and built around the specific mechanisms that keep people stuck.

Even after the books, apps, and therapy.

If you've been doing the work,
but the same patterns still take over

Most people who find their way here aren't beginners.

They've read the books.
They've tried the apps.
Many have done therapy or CBT.
Some have been meditating on and off for years.

The problem isn't a lack of effort or even information. It's that most approaches teach what to think or what to do, but not what's acutally happening when your reactions take over.

The knowledge sits in your head, and under real pressure, the old patterns fire anyway.

The tools taught here start from a different place: the specific mechanisms — how attention works, how emotional reactivity actually builds and releases, what happens in the mind before a reaction becomes a choice — that determine whether a practice stays on the cushion or transfers into real life.

Evidence-based.
Grounded in 2,500 years of tradition.
Explained clearly.

These programs come from an intersection that rarely runs deep: scientific research into how mindfulness actually changes anxiety and depression, and an authentic Tibetan Buddhist training built over more than twenty years. Including years in India studying with teachers and translating their work.

That means there's a reason behind every technique. You learn what's actually happening in the mind, in the patterns of attention and reactivity. The practice becomes something you understand, not just something you're told to do, or feel you should do.

The result is a practice that holds under pressure. Off the cushion. In the conversations that matter.

What people say

"I draw on my practice when challenged by emotional flooding triggers... My friends and family have noticed I am more of the positive, generous and energetic person I want to be. I have the skills and power to choose."

— Brenda, mental health professional

This approach is the real evidence-based foundation for mindfulness — practising and teaching it has become so much richer, nuanced and helpful."

— L. Pscyhologist (Brisbane)

"I'm meditating regularly again. A few times, in daily life, I have noticed and caught strong emotion and chosen to react differently."

— Michael, IT Professional

Frequently asked questions

Is this suitable if I'm currently in therapy or on medication?

Yes. This work should complement to clinical care, not replace it. Many people practise alongside therapy, CBT, or medication. Corey's research focused specifically on the mechanisms by which mindfulness training supports reduced anxiety and depression — it is appropriate for people managing these conditions alongside professional care.

Do I need prior meditation experience?

No. U&E starts from the beginning and is designed for people who may have tried apps and books but are sceptical about whether meditation works for them. No prior experience required.

What's the difference between Unwind & Empower and Balanced Minds?

Unwind & Empower is a structured 6–8 week course with a clear arc. Each session builds on the last, with a defined beginning and end. Balanced Minds is ongoing: fortnightly live sessions, a meditation library, and a community you return to as part of regular practice. U&E includes 8 weeks in Balanced Minds, so many people start with the course and stay on in the community.

I've tried mindfulness before and it didn't stick. Why would this be different?

Most mindfulness approaches teach you what to do without explaining why it works or how the mechanism operates. When you understand what's actually happening — why attention wanders, how emotional reactivity builds, what shifts during practice- then the approach stops being a habit you try to maintain and becomes something that makes sense. That is the point of the mechanism-first design.
