Jan trained as a Mindfulness teacher via the Mindfulness Association / University of Aberdeen teacher training pathway  and is listed as a suitably on the UK Network for Mindfulness -based Teacher Trainers as having been assessed as meeting their stringent requirements for ongoing training and supervision.   She is the founder of MEND Consultancy.  She has recently completed a four-year Master of Science in Studies In Mindfulness at the University of Aberdeen.  This is a unique academic qualification looking at the use of mindfulness in both clinical and business settings.

For the last two years Jan has been working closely with Towerwood Vets  to embed Mindfulness as a central value in the organisation and to use it as a basis for 1:1 coaching relationships with all staff in the practice.
