			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have added some seminars to run this autumn. I have done my best to make the price as fair as possible at £55 per place.</p>
<p>If you can’t attend don’t worry, hopefully the events will be recorded and made available on this site (for a small charge).</p>
<p>All seminars are taking place in Birmingham UK. If you are interested in running any events near to you and would like to organise one, please <a href="http://www.tortoiseknowsbest.com/contact/" target="_self">contact me</a> to discuss it.</p>
<h3>Welcome to the Slow Life</h3>
<p><strong> Date: </strong>10th October 2009</p>
<p>The Slow Life is the Simple Life is the Easy life. But how do you start slowing your life down?</p>
<p>This day will introduce you to the slow philosophy including the key steps to help you start slowing down straight away!</p>
<p>Learn how, my developing your “slow” mindset you can:<br />
•    Increase focus and concentration<br />
•    Relax and de-tress<br />
•    Become calm and collected<br />
•    Focus on the things you really want to get out of life<br />
•    Reconnect with life and appreciate the present moment<br />
•    Sleep better<br />
•    Become healthier and more energised<br />
•    Get control on your spending and your finances<br />
•    Melt away worries and concerns<br />
•    Much, much more</p>
<h3>Finding Time to be Slow</h3>
<p><strong> Date:</strong> 7th November 2009</p>
<p>The biggest excuse I hear for not slowing down is that “I just don’t have the time. I have FAR to much to do”.</p>
<p>This seminar will take you through a tried and tested process that will help you organise your tasks so that you free up your time and allow to concentrate on what you really want to do.</p>
<p>You will learn to stop reacting to the external environment and banish “to do” lists once and for all you allow you take control of you time and your life!</p>
<h3>A Day of Mindfulness</h3>
<p><strong>Date: </strong>21st November 2009</p>
<p>Slow is about savouring the minutes not counting them. But how much attention do you really pay to the present moment?</p>
<p>Mindfulness is originally a Buddhist concept and although mindfulness meditation techniques originated as spiritual practices, they have a long history of secular applications with teachers and authors such as Jon Kabat-Zinn introduced Buddhist mindfulness to the West.</p>
<p>Psychotherapists have adapted and developed mindfulness techniques into several promising cognitive behavioural therapies. Clinical research shows Buddhist mindfulness techniques can help alleviate anxiety, stress, and depression.</p>
<p>Present moment awareness is at the core to the Slow philosophy and in this day you will learn ways to be more mindful in your day-to-day life (without needing to spend hours contemplating your navel – unless you want to of course!)</p>
