Welcome to Mindfulness Courses by Mann Talks

Mann Talks bring you a new series of experiential mindfulness courses and workshops, tailored for the Indian context. Rooted in science and global best practices, these live, expert-led sessions will offer practical tools to build everyday mindfulness habits. Whether you’re new to mindfulness, seeking to deepen your practice, or looking for support in managing anxiety, depression, or everyday stress, we have a program for you.

Our 2-week starter courses or workshops are perfect introductions to the practice of mindfulness, the 4-week courses will help you build a consistent practice, and our 8-week course integrates mindfulness with therapeutic techniques for enhanced well-being.

These interactive courses are offered at a subsidised fee and will be led by certified and experienced mindfulness teachers with a strong understanding of mental health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q) What language will the sessions be in?
A) The sessions will be facilitated in English. However, all teachers speak Hindi as well. If you require any support or clarity for better understanding, you can pause and ask the facilitator or coordinator from Mann Talks.

Q) If I miss a session, will I get notes?
A) You will get session summary/notes if you request for the same. Kindly note that we highly recommend not missing sessions as the essence of live interaction and experiential learning cannot be captured in notes. We do not record our sessions to ensure privacy of participants.

Q) If I miss a session, will I still get a certificate?
A) To receive a certificate for our mindfulness courses, specific attendance requirements apply:
– 2-Week Mindfulness Course/Workshop Series: You must attend all live sessions.
– 4-Week Mindfulness Course: Attendance at a minimum of three live sessions is required.
– 8-Week Mindfulness Course: You need to be present for at least six live sessions.
Please note that these courses/workshops are intended to support the development of your personal mindfulness practice. They do not provide you certification or qualification to teach mindfulness professionally.

Q) Can I take these courses/workshops instead of seeing a mental health professional?
A) These courses and workshops are designed to support your ongoing care and well-being. They are not meant to replace professional mental health treatment or serve as a primary intervention for chronic clinical conditions.

Q) Will there be any concessions or free access?
A) Our courses/workshops are offered at a subsidised fee so we will not be able to give further concessions or discount. You can access our free mindfulness audio series if you have any limitations at the moment and are unable to sign up for the paid course.

Q) What is the cancellation/refund policy?
A) The participation fee is non-refundable. However, if the course is not conducted due to low participation or any reason attributable to the expert/Mann Talks, the entire amount received will be refunded.
