Doing Mindfulness Differently

Mindful Movement Mastery

Mindful Movement for
Therapists Working with Clients who Struggle to Sit Still 
Bringing mindful movement to your sessions

You know your clients will benefit from mindful movement, and you’ve probably experienced the benefits for yourself.

So why is it so hard to introduce mindful movements to our clients in session?

Using neuroscience, mindfulness and therapy essentials we offer a clear road map for you to bring mindful movements to your individual and group sessions.

So you can confidently, safely and creatively offer a range of mindful movements to your clients, and really embrace a psychological approach that keeps body in mind.

Healing Through Mindful Movement

By combining therapy essentials, mindfulness, and neuroscience our courses increase therapist confidence and competency in offering mindful movement to their clients.

As a licensed Clinical Psychologist these practices are formulated, theoretically sound and science backed. This allows therapists to confidently and safely innovative, and unleash their own creativity in their work. 

With my neuroscience background and lived experience of ADHD, I will show you how anyone can train their brain using the 4 Stage model of mindfulness and mindful movement.

You don’t need to be a martial artist, or a neuroscientist, but you do need to challenge the beliefs and assumptions you hold about which movements can be mindful, and how mindfulness is defined. When you do this, a whole new world of mind-body therapy tools is unlocked.

How to know if our Mindful Movement Mastery course is for you?

Whether you’re a seasoned therapist, a mindfulness teacher or an educator, you will be familiar with the standardized mindfulness practices. Mostly seated, with a few movements. You have seen your clients with attention and executive difficulties struggle, disengaged and dismiss  mindfulness. Yet you know they crave improve focused, emotion regulation and better relationships (as do we all!). 

It can be so frustrating when you have something as powerful as mindful movement to offer, and may even have benefited yourself from this approach, but are struggling to find a way in with your clients. 

You are not alone. I too was taught to “sit and talk” as my therapeutic approach. I too was conditioned into a “cognocentric” orientation to my work. 

The turning point for me came slowly. As I found the benefits of martial arts to soothe my own attentional and emotional struggles. As I understood more about the brain networks and how we can train them. When I realized mindful movement was something I could do all day long to train my brain, and saw the impact for my clients.

Having a neuroscience background made it possible for me to see how I could combine movement with the 4 stage model of mindfulness. This is how I was able to train the core brain networks needed for focus and emotional regulation.

As psychologists and therapists we are at a turning point. Our profession is changing and our clients are asking us to evolve. There are those of us who recognize how movement is so fundamental not only to our physical health but also our mental health. Not only that, the moving body is a vehicle to support our cognitive and emotional well-being in a deep and profound way.

What Our Practitioners Have to Say about Our Approach

Working with Tamara has been life changing. Tamara offers a warm and compassionate space … But better yet, the tools that she teaches mean I am able to continue making even bigger and further strides alone in-between sessions. I would recommend Tamara’s approach to anyone looking to apply more mindfulness to their daily lives
— Student
I would like to say how delighted I was with your classes. So much knowledge, so much passion and what a wonderful way to transmit all this knowledge. Your commitment to sharing your knowledge and your passion for mindfulness are remarkable. It’s an inspiration to be able to study with a doctor and professor like that!
— Juliana Meneghini de Oliveira
Through the practice I have been able to reduce my reactivity, and I have noticed that I have personal control over situations. I am no longer immediately affected by other people's irritation or anxiety as I used to be. I am less explosive when faced with discomfort. I can say with great conviction that the exercises are making me a much more attentive father, grandfather, and husband.
— Carlos
This class is making a lot of sense to me. I saw myself in everything that was shared. What an amazing class. For me this class was comforting, because I have a lot of difficulty concentrating and staying still during the entire time of the practice.
— Student
Still doing shoulder rolls every day. .....Thank you so much for the classes I’ve done they really are good.

These courses are the psychoeducation tools used by Dr. Tamara Russell in her individual mindfulness based therapy for ADHD. While these are the foundational tools of her unique clinical approach, they are not a replacement for individual therapy. The content offers powerful tools to help support the executive and emotional challenges of ADHD.

The information in these courses has been curated by a registered Clinical Psychologist, but it is not a replacement for personalised therapy. The information in these courses is for education and personal development and is not meant to replace psychological therapy or clinical support given in individual therapy sessions.

Upon signing up you are enrolled in a monthly membership subscription with a recurring payment that will be automatically charged every month or year, depending on your plan.

All courses include short video lessons (5-15 minutes duration), journal prompts for your own personal explorations and links to extra resources.

In theory, yes you can. You could even sign up for the 7 day free trial, binge on the content and then cancel. This is not recommended however. It takes time to develop skills and the brain learns best through repetition and spiraling.

Also, each month, there are updates to the courses and new material arising from the questions I am receiving. You will not want to miss out on that!
