When I approached you about this course, I wanted the team to come away better equipped to survive and more importantly thrive in the busy world we live in. From what I heard from the team, you have absolutely met this objective and I have seen the change – you have had a real impact on my team and I am very grateful. Thank you again.” Chris Rauch, Chief Customer Officer, Spryker

Ed combines a relaxed and easygoing approach with thoughtful professionalism. I would highly recommend him.” Carmen Martinez, UNICEF UK
“Ed delivered a great session on mindfulness, which he pitched at the right level for those who had practised mindfulness before and for complete beginners. It was great that we were able to experience the practical application in the session too. Ed was really easy to work with, very accommodating, interactive with the group and clearly passionate about his work. It was a really enjoyable and very informative session that everyone enjoyed attending” Claudia Donaldson, Legal Services, Sainsburys
“I just wanted to send a little note to say a big, big thank you for being so brilliant this weekend. Everyone seemed to really enjoy and be inspired by your stories and tips, which is exactly what we were hoping for. And especially thank you for kicking off the festival’s talks – not the easiest job, but you packed out the yurt. Hopefully now we’ll have a new group of people going off and looking in to mindfulness and feeling a bit better on a day-to-day basis.” Clemmie Nettlefold, UK PR Manager, Innocent Drinks (following talk given at Innocent Unplugged Festival)

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Ed." Helen Doughty, HR Director,TBWA/London
"I just wanted to say a personal thank you to you for your Mindfulness session at our Health and Wellbeing Week. To be honest, I didn’t really know what to expect but have come away feeling enlightened and very much interested in finding out more about the art of mindfulness and how I can focus on being in the moment with purpose, curiosity and compassion. Feedback from your session was all excellent.” Jennie Colville, Group Corporate Responsibility Manager, RSA (Royal & Sun Alliance)
The participants found your session extremely engaging. You gave a really good insight into mindfulness and the fact that some of the doubters recognised the benefits showed how much of an impact you made. Excellent in all categories, and it was a pleasure working with you.” Perry Funnell, Organisational Development Consultant, University College London.
Your feedback was just wonderful, as I knew it would be." Kirsty Buck, Head of Programming, Learning, Guardian News and Media

“The one day mindfulness training was a great introduction to this helpful approach to working with our service users. The workshop was very enlightening and the exercises shared will be really useful for our work. The content was relevant and the delivery style was excellent. Ed is an excellent trainer and clearly very knowledgeable and highly skilled” Carl Hall, Kent, Surrey, Sussex Community Rehabilitation Company (KSSCRC)
"It (the eight-week mindfulness course) was a journey into the unknown for us - and one very worthwhile in completing. During an unparalleled time of change, uncertainty and risk, it has provided, at the very least, a weekly grounding, but for many, including myself, I believe it has made us more personally enlightened and planted seeds of habitual thinking and practice that will continue to influence us as we move forward with our lives. This is powerful stuff – expertly delivered – thank you!" Lloyd Murphy, Headteacher, Wray Common School, Reigate
“Working with you has been seamless and easy - you actively listened to the specific needs we have at Vestiaire Collective and offered an agenda which perfectly matched the participant’s level of knowledge on mindfulness. There was a perfect balance between theory, science and practice. What I appreciate particularly about the way you deliver your workshops is that you are incredibly strong at explaining topics which may be new concepts to the listeners in a relatable and precise way. It’s very clear that you are an absolute expert on the subject and your credibility contributes to people connecting to the subject easily, even if they never reflected upon it before. Colleagues verbally shared positive feedback on the talk - saying that it helped them become more conscious about which states they are in throughout their (work-)days and learning to appreciate being present.” Victoria Schmierer, Product Manager, Vestiaire Collective
“The recent mindfulness sessions were incredibly well received by our UK. and Irish employees. Given the recent outbreak of the Covid-19 crisis, I have no doubt that the insights shared by Ed will have a positive and lasting impact on all who attended. Thank you for delivering such a practical and thought provoking talk. The feedback has been exceptional and many have asked for a recording of the talk.” Chris Collins, HR and Customer Experience Director, Intrum
“In our research for mindfulness instructors, we were incredibly lucky to stumble across Ed’s website! Our “Introduction to Mindfulness” workshop was conducted via Zoom, which was very convenient for our International team that is spread across 13 different countries. Ed is a fantastic teacher, he made everyone feel very comfortable and at ease, at the same time making the session engaging and interactive. The team described the session as one of the best training/workshops about self-care and mindfulness that they have ever attended. We would highly recommend Ed’s workshop to any company that would like to enrich their employee wellness initiatives with some nourishment for the mind.” Janina Dowgal, HR & Talent Coordinator at Comdata/Coca-Cola
"Thank you so much for the session you ran today. Even after the meeting closed there were many more comments in the chat with thanks and saying how useful and informative it had been." Caroline Tolson, Senior HR Business Partner, Cats Protection
The whole experience was very positive. Ed was a really great presenter and his presentation was perfect for beginners of working with mindfulness as well as those who had previously done so before. All the feedback we have had has been very positive and the participants enjoyed all elements of the presentation.” Amy Greenham, Lawyers on Demand
Ed Halliwell is a fantastic workshop leader who really understands how to get the attention of the crowd and be both educational as well as entertaining. The atmosphere he created in his workshop was fantastic and people really felt held to try new skills while at the event. People commented on the accessibility of what was presented and their willingness to come back again on following days (the workshop was held over three days at the same time each day). Thank you for a really inspiring workshop – we would love to work together again.”Jana Stefanovska, Founder/Director, NOW Live Events
We recognised that if we were going to attract our target audience to the event, we had to secure a national speaker with some gravitas. It is with great fortune that we managed to secure the services of Ed. Ed was our keynote speaker and lived up to his billing - his presentation was informative, enjoyable, thought-provoking and delivered in a professional and engaging manner. Our post-event evaluation confirmed that the presentation was a huge success.” Ian Burnitt, Local Interest Group For Mindfulness, Hull and East Riding of Yorkshire NHS
Ed has worked with the full-time MBA students at Imperial College Business School for three consecutive years. We have been deeply impressed by the way in which he brings alive the practice of mindfulness for a professional, and often sceptical, audience. Ed is a confident and competent facilitator who we will no doubt bring back into our classrooms.” Dr Charles Donovan, Principal Teaching Fellow, Imperial Business School
Ed, your session at the Althorp Literary Festival was just brilliant – thank you so much for it.” Earl Spencer
