Human
Mindfulness depends
on different people and
different approaches to life.
First things first
Mindfulness.
Circle-of-Excellence is about
learning mindfulness, practising mindfulness
and becoming more skilful at teaching mindfulness.
It is comprised of 15 AI-powered
apps that have been programmed to:
- to help and assist
you with practical tasks,
- to coach you to explore
the edges of your knowledge,
- to play the scientist making sure
that your practice is informative, and
- to tell inspirational stories because
you want to make time and space for wonderment.
At its heart
Awareness...
...Begins with something
both simple and profound:
Notice attention.
Notice thoughts.
Notice sensations.
Notice emotion.
Notice habits and reactions.
With practice, we can notice more,
become more aware of experience as it unfolds,
and more thoughtful about how we choose to respond.
AI is simply a tool to make us notice more,
to raise our attention, to extend our perception,
to expand our curiousity, and give us more choices.
At its core
Experience...
...has been explored
through contemplative traditions,
modern psychology and neuroscience,
and insightful and inspirational storytellers
These different perspectives can help us ask
interesting questions about attention, awareness,
stress, emotion, memory, the body and the brain.
The AI helps bring these
many perspectives together,
to make sense of them, and
connect them with our experience.
Your Unique
Journey.
The different apps in Circle-of-Excellence
focus on different parts of mindfulness journey.
Some help you prepare and teach.
Some help you practise and reflect.
Others invite you to explore ideas in depth.
You might begin with
a practical question:
how to structure a session,
explain a practice,
or respond to a difficult moment.
Then curiosity may
take you further:
into attention,
awareness,
philosophy,
neurophysiology,
meditation states,
teachers and traditions.
The journey does not have
one fixed starting point or destination.
Learn.
Practise.
Reflect.
Teach.
Discover.
Together, the apps form a circle of support.
Together, they help you chase excellence.

they strengthen your practice,
teaching and reflection.
Curious

science and experience
with an inquiring open mind.
Reflective
Good practice includes
pausing, noticing, questioning
and learning from experience.
Responsible
Mindfulness should be
respectful of each person's
dignity, safety and boundaries.
