Welcome to the MTTC programme, an internationally certified Mindfulness Teacher Training Course, designed to enhance personal and professional growth. This initial six-month module emphasises practical exercises and diverse applications of mindfulness practices.
The second six-month module emphasises teacher training with further support for personal development.
Led by Christopher Titmuss and Nshorna Davies, the Course integrates feedback from previous programmes, insights from assistant teachers/participants and rigorous research to meet professional qualification standards.
With participants from such locations as Australia, Europe, Middle East, North America and the UK, this programme fosters a global network while focusing on mindfulness in everyday settings—whether at work, home, social life or time of transition.
Our goal is to provide a depth of training tailored to your needs, ensuring its relevance to your daily life and professional development.
Opening Talk Extract on Mindfulness of Stress given in the MTTC 2023-2024

Extract from Teaching in opening session of MTTC in October 2023
This is a transcribed audio and edited for text.
“An individual’s past experiences of stress can have a significant impact on their ability to cope with present challenges, potentially increasing the level of stress. The stress can manifest in body, mind and speech, such as anger, fear, anxiety, impatience and a low mood.
“Physical tension, excessive talking and minimal talking can confirm stress.
“We become stressed when there is a powerful desire to complete a task or fear of not completing.
“Another manifestation of stress is difficulty concentrating. Our mind becomes preoccupied with past, present and future concerns, hindering our ability to focus on the task at hand.
“Symptoms of stress can include difficulty in falling asleep. When thoughts become excessive, they can become exhausting, repetitive or both.
“Do we become engrossed in our mobile phone to avoid attending to stress?
“Our approach to stress management involves examining such common signs of stress. Please write down areas and times when you tend to experience stress, including being caught up in a story.
“You could identify three primary areas where you need to develop mindfulness of vulnerability of such reactive states of mind. As you develop mindfulness, you can catch the signals earlier of stress arising or prepare for an anticipated stressful situation….
“Nshorna will now give a guided meditation on Mindfulness of Stress……”

Words of Appreciation from Past Trainees
MTTC course held the space for me to grow in ways much greater than I had expected.
I felt a great sense of openness, energy and friendship.
The team’s dedication and the resources offered are unparalleled.
The course is well organized and provides a wealth of tools for every dimension of daily life.
The extra sessions provided by the assistant teachers were powerful and highly beneficial.
This course is revolutionary. A world of possibilities for growth, contemplation, exploration and expansion opens up.
