Lauren Alvarez, the founder of The Mindful Hippo.
Who is Lauren Alvarez?
Lauren Alvarez is the founder of The Mindful Hippo. Over the past two decades, she has dedicated her career to Early Years and Primary school education across the Middle East, the UK, and Germany.
Lauren has always been interested in mental well-being and holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. Her journey into mindfulness began with teaching it in schools, eventually expanding to support entire families.
Lauren studied at the Mindful Academy Solterreno, gaining qualifications to teach the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) course. Today, as a qualified Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction teacher and registered member of the International Institute of Complementary Therapists, she is committed to highlighting mindfulness as a tool for well-being.
The Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course, developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn in the 1970s, supports pain management and stress relief. The course includes guided meditations, reflective activities on stress management, and mindful communication. Lauren’s sessions provide a safe space for exploring mindfulness and meditation, with groups usually capped at six participants.
What is on Offer?
Lauren is offering two FREE spaces on her 8 week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course which is conducted over live zoom for 2.5 hours per week on a Sunday evening.
The course will run every Sunday from the 15th of September until the 3rd of November from 7:30pm to 10:00pm (CET)
As part of good practice for the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course, Lauren will arrange a short 15 minute chat before sign up to ensure that this is the right time for you to take the course.
She is passionate about bringing mindfulness into the lives of many to alleviate stress and anxiety, improve focus, enhance sleep and reduce chronic pain. Please feel free to reach out to her with any questions.
