MindfullySTRONG is an integrated mindfulness and physical training programme which brings a novel approach to working out.
Hembrough encourages his participants to exercise in a mindful way. This means lifting weights and doing cardiovascular workouts in a non-judgemental atmosphere with no preconceived notions of ability.
Effort and enjoyment is the focus. Hembrough asks his participants to enjoy the process of exercise rather than chase the outcome.
As well as exercising, participants also take part in meaningful conversations about life and practise meditation to connect with themselves and the world around them.
With physical and mental well-being in alliance, Hembrough reminds coaches that what’s true for participants is also true for them.
So, here’s his top tips for keeping your mental well-being in tip-top condition.
