Comma

Comma MindFitness specialises in delivering high quality, engaging teaching in the practice of mindfulness meditation. It takes its approach from east and west approaches to meditation and blends yoga, adventure flow and high performance techniques.

Comma is founded on the principle that life is too busy, and if more of us took a breath during our day, we would achieve a higher performing less stressful existence.

A comma, in grammatical terms, is placed mid-sentence to remind us to take a breath; likewise a Comma Mindfulness Practice placed in our day will provide our brain with a similar break improving our BrainFitness and response and approach to daily activities.

The Brain is our most powerful organ. It controls all. And like all organs and muscles it needs to be running efficiently and in a coordinated fashion. Training our brain to be stronger through formal and informal mindfulness practice makes our brain stronger and better able to cope with the daily pressures of a modern life.

As an education outdoors teacher for the past 18 years, and adventurer for life, Jarrod (founder and director of Comma) has great skills and patience in teaching and brings an enthusiastic and infectious passion to all his classes along with his personal experiences.
He is one of those human beings that has a constantly busy mind and body; always working on something, rarely resting, always achieving. It was these characteristics and a strong virus that set him up to crash with chronic fatigue and it was formal and informal mindfulness practice that picked him up and returned him to a high performing personal state.
Jarrod developed his personal practice with no formal training over years of extensive reading, guided practice and lots of time sitting. Combined with later completing numerous formal courses in Mindfulness and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, Jarrod has established his own unique, blended approach to daily mindfulness; part yoga, part adventure flow, and part formal sitting.
Meet Jarrod 2. 0.
He is passionate about mindfulness meditation for the way it can improve the efficiency of the brain, essentially the brain's fitness, spanning across emotional control, improved concentration and volume of task completion. Jarrod believes this brain training is as important as numeracy and literacy in this high performing busy modern world and teaches this Introductory course as a way of helping more adults get brain fit.
