At the Sheffield Wellness Centre, we understand the importance of mindfulness in maintaining mental well-being. Through simple yet powerful practices, mindfulness offers a pathway to cultivate awareness, reduce stress, and enhance overall quality of life.

Mindfulness is a practice rooted in the cultivation of present moment awareness. It involves paying attention to the thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, and surrounding environment without judgment.
By anchoring one’s awareness in the present moment, mindfulness allows individuals to observe their experiences with openness and acceptance. This non-reactive stance towards internal and external events fosters a deeper understanding of oneself and the world around them.
At its core, mindfulness is about bringing intentional awareness to the here and now. It encourages individuals to tune into the present moment with curiosity and kindness, rather than dwelling on the past or worrying about the future.
Mindfulness practices often involve simple activities such as focused breathing, body scans, or mindful movement, all designed to anchor attention in the present moment. Through regular practice, mindfulness cultivates a greater sense of clarity, calmness, and emotional resilience.
In essence, mindfulness offers a way to navigate life’s challenges with greater ease and clarity. By developing a more intimate connection with the present moment, individuals can cultivate a deeper sense of self-awareness and emotional regulation.
Mindfulness empowers individuals to respond to life’s ups and downs with greater equanimity, leading to enhanced well-being and a richer, more fulfilling life experience.
I've been using the Sheffield Wellness Centre for a few months now and am really enjoying the calm, comfortable and friendly feel of the rooms, and the great support from the manager.
I spoke with Richard who was helped me a lot in understanding my situation. He was also generous with his time when the question required longer than the 15mins. Thank you.
They provided excellent advise regarding our 3 children who all have SEN. Richard was very supportive and took his time to give us the best advice possible.
Deborah Chadbourn was an excellent grief counsellor for me. It is five years since my first wife died, and we explored how I am feeling now, and how to navigate new and old relationships while remaining true to everything from the past. Deborah is a great listener, and provides good challenge and advice. The venue worked well for me, as did the evening appointments. Thank you!
Shabana is one of those rare people who truly listens and understands without judgement. Her support came at a time when life felt overwhelming, and she helped me slowly rebuild my confidence and sense of self. I always left each session feeling lighter, calmer, and more grounded, and the tools she shared continue to help me every day. She helped me piece myself back together and reminded me that healing doesn’t mean becoming someone new — it means rediscovering who you’ve always been. I feel like my old self again, only stronger and more at peace. I can’t thank her enough.
My reki session was relaxing in a lovely environment . I really benefited from it and had a great nights sleep. Highly recommend.
Lovely mixture of reiki and creative life coaching from Jemma Rosenthal. Found the reiki very grounding and healing and the life coaching helped me navigate a difficult period of change and to clear some blocks in my life.
I am looking forward to offering homeopathy from Sheffield Wellness Centre. The rooms have a lovely relaxing feel and they are lovely and clean. Sheffield Wellness Centre is conveniently situated with on street parking and bus access.
Our work group recently had a Wellness Day and we were able to book Jemma Rosenthal and Ranaa Farooq from the Sheffield Wellness Centre for an instructional workshop. I have since received excellent feedback from group members. Jemma and Ranaa provided a very lively and well-coordinated session. We were able to cover topics such as Visualisation in a systematic manner. All along, attendees were impressed with the passion and interest displayed by both presenters. As an audience, we were certainly captivated. I can wholeheartedly recommend Jemma and Ranaa for any future events.
I had 2 sessions with Kim but to be honest after the first I was totally stress free her ability to remember all the people involved shoed her compasion I am so grateful and have slept like a log ever since thankyou ❤️
Charlotte is totally my medicine, she is amazing and iv been seeing her for various things and she has solved them. Cant recommend her or the Centre enough its very private, clean and relaxing. Thank you
Came to have my session with Jemma Rosenthal here. The restrooms are so clean. There are steps that one needs to be careful of once you get onto the first floor. Fabulous place other than that, just wish it had a lift. Regarding my session: Oh wow, where do I start?! Even before meeting Jemma, i've felt at ease as there is something with the way she talks, which is so calming and reassuring. My first session was exhaustive, but I loved it. I enjoyed the relaxing Reiki in the end. She tells me that I need to tell her when I am feeling tired of talking about my depressive past and that she can approach a different way of therapy. This feels so liberating because she is basically willing to tailor the session for YOUR needs. She is a wise lady. Though she is younger than me, she is very caring, intelligent and as I said a wise person. I am so happy that our paths crossed and she is helping me come out of my bad phase. I came home and was so relaxed (I was singing freely and my husband noticed a change in the way I sing it was excellent)... I've been happy and been chuckling which is so not like me but the sad phase is jutting out of my system. I've had other private sessions for depression but wanted someone to coach my life who understands anxiety and depression. I don't remember how I found her online but glad that I did!! -Sharvani ♡☆♡ She's truly a Gem... Jem✨
I met Richard today with a view to hiring the rooms for children's Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I was pleasantly surprised at how clean and spacious the rooms were. The space was light and tidy and Richard was extremely welcoming and goes the extra mile for therapist. Providing web support, pages on Sheffield wellness site for all therapist. Support at gaining clients. The place is easily accessible to Sheffield and the Peak District. Highly recommended.
A beautiful little haven tucked behind a busy street. Convenient to get to, the rooms are cosy and quiet - with a wealth of practitioners offering their skills. Its outdoor space holds a community feel with a neighbouring cafe and quirky shops to browse after a treatment.
Rooms were very good for therapy. Quiet, warm and comfortable with quality furnishings. Kept very clean and always plenty of clean glasses and fresh water available.
A wonderful calming place on Abbeydale road, with perfectly serene therapy rooms.
I've visited the Centre for a massage and I'm about to begin hiring the rooms myself as a practitioner. The rooms are really beautifully done out, with a lot of care and attention to detail. Richard has been very supportive and helpful in getting registered and started up.
i had 1-1 a reiki session with Nadine and it exceeded expectations. parking for the wellness centre on nearby streets was easy, it's easy to find and the therapy rooms are beautiful. i couldn't recommend it enough and will 100% be returning!
Well kept, warm and welcoming rooms. Hot and soft drinks available. It makes therapy sessions a little easier
Super lovely people and place! Lovely rooms, lovely vibe. Great place to have a massage and so well located. Lots of thought and care has gone into making this place as special as it is. Highly recommend. Had a hot stones massage with Fi today. I’ve been floating ever since. Highly recommend. Great way to treat to aching shoulders and neck. I feel renewed x
I had a Reiki session with Nadine, it was so good and Nadine was excellent she took time to explain everything and made me feel comfortable. Good communication and really helpful. So happy with the session I booked straight in for my next.
Booked in for a regression hypnotherapy session with Helen and the experience was absolutely amazing, highly recommended . Helen was like a breath of fresh air , just what I needed, thanks
I've had two massages with Fi at the Wellness Centre 'so far' and both times I've come away feeling like a different person. Fi not only has magic healing hands that make you feel wonderful with every touch, but she treats you with such calm and gentle compassion that this is a really holistic therapeutic experience. Definitely recommend
I had a pregnancy massage with Fi and it was amazing! the centre is a very relaxing place and she had it warm and comfortable for me. Despite her wearing PPE, the gloves didn't affect the feel of the massage and wearing masks made me feel safe. The actual massage was so relaxing and relieved any tension I felt as Fi had asked me where any tension was. I would highly recommend her to any pregnant ladies!
As a complete beginner and not being quite as agile as I'd like I was a bit nervous about attending a Yoga class but while I may be slightly biased given Elisha of Grow Yoga is my daughter I can honestly say I enjoyed every second of her class. She's a beautiful human with a passion and energy that radiates from her. She explains everything perfectly and encourages you to just go at your own pace and enjoy. On each occasion I've been I've left feeling like the world is a much brighter place with a calmness that is rare to feel in this very busy world. If you do have the chance to try one of her classes please take it, you'll fall in love with Grow Yoga
This is a wonderful oasis of calm and positivity tucked away inside a leafy courtyard on Abbeydale Road. The rooms are light, comfortable and tranquil. I always leave feeling brighter than I arrived.
A well laid out and welcoming place, conveniently located on a major route in to the city. Additionally, there is a small cafe for social meetups, before or after a session in the centre.
I have had the most wonderful hypnotherapy session with Fi from the Sheffield Wellness Centre. I knew from previous chats with her that she had the perfect voice and open demeanor for hypnotherapy, and I wasn't wrong. She immediately put me at ease and I was able to open up honestly with her. The session itself was lovely, I went quickly into a trance state and, although it's early days, feel very much that the session was beneficial: I already feel lighter and more in control of the anxiety and other problems I suffer with. The Sheffield Wellness Centre is also the perfect therapeutic space. The therapy rooms are lovely and perfectly suited to a range of therapies and the studio is bright and welcoming. I'm so excited to continue my therapy with Fi and am 100% sure this will give me so much benefit, I can't recommend her and the SWC enough.
This is an amazing space and i am very much looking forward to running regular yoga classes from here. It's a great location in Sheffield and as soon as i walked into the studio i knew i could work from here. Very clean and well maintained space and its obvious a lot of love and care has gone into setting it up.
Lovely venue, I had a Reiki session with Jess. It was my first session with her, she was very welcoming and explain the process in detail. The treatment was wonderful, I felt relax and a sense of joy during the session.I highly recommend Jess and the place to anyone that wants to try Reiki for the first time as she is a very gentle and calm person.
Lovely place! Coasy, beautiful, newly decorated rooms. Easily accesible from Sheffield city centra and Pick District. A lot of qualified therapists with experiences in various disciplines. Highly recommended!
I couldn't recommend Natalia enough! I have been treated by her and her essences for over a year now and we have gone through different levels of healing processes that I needed to go through. The powerful drops prepared for you at the end of the session gives you the extra help that you need to face your challenges... Thank you ever so much Nah! For the healing reiki sessions, the essences treatments and all the generosity and knowledge you bring and mix from your long time experience as a therapist; which makes your sessions unique and rich in love, faith and hope!!! �
The Wellness Centre has a wonderful Yoga studio, one of the best intimate smaller yoga spaces I have ever used. Absolutey wonderful!
I met with Richard today to view the treatments rooms and the studio. What a lovely, calming, welcoming and comfortable place, with a generous touch of character! Richard was incredibly helpful and welcoming. I left feeling very excited at the prospect of using the premises for my classes and client sessions.
Lovely peaceful premises, beautifully kept. Run by the most lovely, helpful and friendly people. A great place to come for any type of treatment or to hire the rooms. If only more places were run as well as this one! Fantastic!
What a wonderful space! We had a great time at baby yoga, Fi is wonderful. I will be back for more of the lovely things on offer!
Beautiful place. So many different things going on. Peaceful and excellent service.
I had a wonderful experience with Richard, He is very friendly, I found it really easy to talk to him. He has all the qualities of a Good Hypnotherapist. I would recommend all my friends to him. And trust me it was first time I met him and it was great.
An amazing place to give and receive treatments. Love the space and the people.
The Sheffield Wellness Centre is a place of calm tranquillity, perfect for giving and receiving treatments. Well done to Richard and Fi.
Pamper Party What a great idea! A bit of ‘me time’, in the most wonderfully relaxing surroundings. The Wellness Centre has such a relaxed, homely feel to it - much nicer than my actual home, as it is clean, tidy and welcoming! The atmosphere immediately put me at ease, I absolutely loved having time to chill out, chat and eat cake. Fi is the perfect hostess, making sure that we all had everything we needed, with her wonderful warm and caring manner. It was great to be able to choose what particular treatment or massage I wanted on the day. I surprised myself by trying something new and going for the hot stones massage, and I’m so glad I did. It was amazing, so deep and yet so gentle. It was really nice to experience my massage while listening to everyone else chatting happily, too. I completely recommend this if you are looking for the perfect excuse to have some guilt free time to yourself.
Lovely setting through a beautiful courtyard. Attended daisy birth classes with fi cannot recommend highly enough very informative/supportive/empowering/welcoming
I've been considering hypnotherapy for some time, but have always been slightly sceptical of the claims made about it's efficacy. I spoke to Richard Hennessy, based at the centre, and was so impressed by his knowledge and openness about the process. Combined with the clear information available via the website, I have found the trust I needed to move forward with this treatment.
Mindfulness is the practice of being fully present and engaged in the current moment, without judgment. When we’re mindful, we’re aware of our thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, and surroundings. However, when we’re not mindful, we may find ourselves disconnected from the present moment, which can manifest in various symptoms. Here are ten symptoms of not being mindful:

In daily situations, lacking mindfulness might lead to feeling scattered and overwhelmed. Without mindfulness, we might find ourselves multitasking, rushing through tasks, and constantly worrying about the future or dwelling on the past. This scattered approach often results in increased stress and decreased productivity.
However, with mindfulness, we can approach these situations with a sense of calm and focus. By being fully present in the moment, we can engage more deeply with each task, enhancing our efficiency and overall well-being.
Similarly, in relationships, a lack of mindfulness can lead to misunderstandings and conflict. When we’re not fully present with our loved ones, we may misinterpret their words or actions, leading to unnecessary tension and friction.
By practicing mindfulness, we can cultivate greater empathy and connection in our relationships. By actively listening and being fully present with our partners, friends, and family members, we can foster deeper understanding and intimacy, strengthening our bonds and enriching our lives.
By cultivating awareness of our thoughts and feelings, we can choose how to respond to various situations, fostering resilience and emotional well-being. Mindfulness allows us to approach life’s challenges with a sense of inner peace and balance, empowering us to navigate our experiences with grace and wisdom.
We’ve gathered our most frequently asked questions about mindfulness in Sheffield, putting them all in one place for your convenience.
While it may seem daunting at first, incorporating mindfulness into your daily life can be simple and accessible, even for beginners. Here’s a practical five-step guide to help you get started on your mindfulness journey.
Set aside time for mindfulness: Begin by carving out dedicated time in your day for mindfulness practice. Start with just a few minutes each day and gradually increase the duration as you become more comfortable. Choose a time when you’re least likely to be interrupted, whether it’s in the morning before you start your day, during a lunch break, or in the evening before bed.
Find a comfortable space: Select a quiet and comfortable space where you can practice mindfulness without distractions. It could be a cozy corner in your home, a peaceful spot in nature, or even a quiet room at work during a break. Make sure you’re seated comfortably, either on a chair or cushion, with your back straight and feet firmly planted on the ground.
Focus on your breath: Once you’re settled in your chosen space, close your eyes if it feels comfortable or maintain a soft gaze. Begin by bringing your attention to your breath, noticing the sensation of each inhale and exhale. There’s no need to try to control your breath; simply observe it as it naturally flows in and out of your body. If your mind starts to wander, gently bring your focus back to your breath without judgment.
Awareness of your thoughts and sensations: As you continue to focus on your breath, you may notice thoughts, emotions, or bodily sensations arising. Instead of getting caught up in them or trying to push them away, simply observe them with curiosity and non-judgment. Notice the thoughts passing through your mind like clouds in the sky, allowing them to come and go without attaching to them.
Practice regularly and be patient: Like any skill, mindfulness takes time and consistent practice to develop. Commit to incorporating mindfulness into your daily routine, even if it’s just for a few minutes each day. Be patient with yourself and approach your practice with kindness and compassion. Over time, you’ll begin to experience the benefits of mindfulness, such as reduced stress, improved focus, and greater emotional resilience.
At the Sheffield Wellness Centre, we’re dedicated to guiding you on a journey of mindfulness, a practice that fosters profound presence and awareness in your daily life. Mindfulness therapy is a pathway to deeper self-discovery and inner peace. In addition to this we have other therapies that incorporate mindfulness techniques such as hypnotherapy, counselling, and psychotherapy.
Mindfulness: Our mindfulness therapy sessions are crafted to immerse you in the transformative power of mindfulness. Through gentle guidance and practical exercises, you’ll learn to tune into the rhythm of your breath, anchor yourself in the present moment, and embrace each experience with openness and acceptance. Mindfulness therapy empowers you to navigate life’s twists and turns with grace and resilience, fostering a deep sense of inner calm and well-being.
Hypnotherapy: Hypnotherapy offers a unique approach to enhancing mindfulness by accessing the subconscious mind to promote relaxation and positive change. Through guided imagery and suggestion, hypnotherapy can deepen your mindfulness practice, reduce distractions, and enhance your ability to enter a state of deep presence and focus.
Counselling: Counselling provides a supportive space for exploring any challenges or barriers you may encounter on your mindfulness journey. A trained counsellor can help you address underlying emotional issues, develop coping strategies, and cultivate self-awareness to enhance your mindfulness practice. By addressing any mental or emotional blocks, counselling can support you in fully embracing the benefits of mindfulness for your overall well-being.
Psychotherapy: Psychotherapy offers an in-depth exploration of the underlying emotional and psychological factors influencing your mindfulness practice. Through various therapeutic techniques, such as psychodynamic therapy or person-centred therapy, individuals can address unresolved traumas, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and deepen their understanding of themselves. Psychotherapy aims to facilitate long-term personal growth and inner transformation, supporting you on your journey towards greater mindfulness and well-being.
