Courses and workshops grounded in science, shaped by wisdom, and built for real life.

For individuals, parents, educators, and clinicians — a growing programme of courses that go beyond the surface.

Every course on this page is built around the same conviction: that understanding yourself — and the people in your care — at a deeper level changes everything.

Some courses are for anyone ready to do that work. Others are designed specifically for the professionals whose job it is to help others do it.

Featured Courses

FOUNDATIONS OF MINDFULNESS

Dates: TBA

Most people come to this course having already tried mindfulness. The apps. The breathing exercises. The occasional yoga class. And they've found that something about it doesn't quite stick — or that it helps in the moment but doesn't reach whatever is underneath.

This course goes to the root. Not mindfulness as a stress-relief technique, but mindfulness as a way of understanding yourself — and a different relationship with your own experience.

Suitable for complete beginners and experienced practitioners alike.

PILLARS OF HAPPINESS

Dates: TBA

Most of us have been working the wrong side of the happiness equation.

This course starts with honesty about how your brain actually works — and builds from that understanding into something genuinely useful. Not a course about positivity. A course about understanding yourself clearly enough that a different kind of life becomes available.

Suitable for anyone. No prior knowledge required.

PAST COURSES

COMPASSION FOCUSED CHILDREARING

For educators & early childhood professionals

Dates: TBA

Most disruptive classroom behaviour isn't defiance. It's a dysregulated nervous system looking for safety.

This course teaches educators how to read what a child's behaviour is actually communicating — and how to respond in ways that regulate rather than escalate. Built around the three emotion regulation systems and the latest in affective neuroscience.

MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID FOR PARENTS

For parents

Dates: TBA

Anxiety in a teenager rarely looks like anxiety in an adult.

This seminar equips parents to recognise what's actually happening beneath the surface of adolescent emotional life — and how to respond in ways that help rather than inadvertently make things worse.

Professional Training

For clinicians who want to go deeper.

Most professional development teaches you what to do. These courses go further — into why it works, where the evidence is heading, and how to build a model of practice that is genuinely integrated rather than a collection of approaches you cycle between

Delivered by a clinician who has spent a career at the intersection of neuroscience, ancient wisdom traditions, and evidence-based psychology — and who believes the most important thing a training can do is change how you think, not just what you do.

Dr Lukeides delivers a workshop for depression in motherhood.

DEPRESSION IN MOTHERHOOD

For GPs & mental health professionals

Dates: TBA

Perinatal and postnatal depression is frequently missed, misread, or undertreated. This one-day course equips GPs and mental health clinicians with the tools to identify risk early, intervene effectively, and support women through one of the most psychologically complex periods of their lives.

Dr Lukeides teaches clinicians about process based therapy.

PROCESS-BASED THERAPY

For clinicians

Dates: TBA

The diagnosis-to-protocol model is showing its limitations. Process-Based Therapy offers clinicians a transdiagnostic framework built around the mechanisms that actually drive change — regardless of presenting condition.

Dr Lukeides delivers a 3 day training in compassion focused therapy.

COMPASSION FOCUSED THERAPY

For clinicians

Dates: TBA

Self-compassion is not softness. It is the psychological environment in which change becomes possible. This course gives clinicians a rigorous grounding in Compassion Focused Therapy and how to apply it across presentations marked by shame, self-criticism, and unworthiness.
