Do you ever find yourself….
In 2013 I was in a very serious accident that left me with a traumatic brain injury. Four neurosurgeries, one bone infection, one chronic non-healing incision line and one prosthesis later, I was left wondering what I was going to do with my life. And how was I going to sit with the feelings of anxiety and uncertainty that I was experiencing all the time.
That’s when I first discovered mindfulness and it’s not an exaggeration to say that it changed my life.
I was always so shy growing up and wouldn’t speak to anyone. I was constantly worrying about what other people would think of me. My mind was constantly going with judgments and negative self-beliefs that often stopped me from moving forward in life.
That all changed once I started practicing mindfulness.
I learned how to get out of my head and to quiet all that noise.
I learned how to manage and decrease my feelings of anxiety.
I learned how to be comfortable with the uncertainty of life.
I learned how to connect with myself and to tap into my true self.
Now I want to share this gift with others.
What I learned from my own practice is the importance of 3 things:
I heard the feedback from my students and I took what I know from my own experience and The Mindfulness Community was created.
3 times a month I will host a guided video meditation and workshop that ties into that months theme for community members only.

Charlene has such a warm and calming energy. You can't help but feel at peace when you're near her. I did outdoor guided meditation with her and it was the perfect way to set me up for a productive day.
Working with Charlene on mindfulness and meditation has made all the difference in my very busy life. Her calming voice is a constant reminder in the back of my head to stay present and tuned in, whether I’m eating a meal, walking down the street, or working with a client. I recommend working with Charlene if you are feeling disconnected from yourself and you need to learn how to quiet the outside noise and come home to your heart.
Charlene stands for mindfulness in every sense of the word. Being in her presence you can't help but feel the energy she shares and the presence she brings. Would highly recommend working with her for your overall wellbeing and mindfulness goals.
Charlene is a qualified Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Teacher & mindfulness coach, a motivational speaker and a therapist.
Charlene has spent the last 10 years working with children and youth with special needs, mental health and behavioural issues until an accident in 2013 prompted her to reexamine her life. In 2014 she began her masters program in counselling psychology which she completed in the summer of 2017. It was also during this time that Charlene began her own mindfulness journey.
As a way to learn how to manage the uncertainty she faced after a series of operations and complications, Charlene studied mindfulness meditation with her mentor and teacher Jasia Sulit. She deepened her practice at silent retreats in Vipassana meditation through the Ontario and Quebec Vipassana Centres. She has also received training in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) at the University of Massachusetts Medical School.
