From Doing to Being in the Moment: Harness the Power of Now in Your Coaching Practice
The demand for mindfulness in professional coaching is on the rise. If you want to become a certified mindfulness coach or to infuse mindfulness into your existing coaching, our Mindfulness Coaching Certification Course is for you.
In our Mindfulness Coaching Course, you will learn to integrate the principles of mindfulness into your coaching practice. By creating a grounded presence, you can develop a safe space to deepen both your conversations with your clients and their transformation.
You will gain not just theoretical knowledge but also practical experience, mentorship, and coursework designed to hone your skills. This course provides you with practice hours and qualifications that are recognised globally.
At Coaching Outside the Box, we understand that real change comes from within. By helping your clients embrace the present experience, you’re creating space for them to grow their self awareness through their sensations, triggers, beliefs, values, needs, and wants.
Through mindfulness, you can better guide your clients to connect more deeply with their inner self — and bring about deeper transformations in the process.
This course will shift your attention to what is happening in the here and now.
As a participant, you will learn:
- how to make more conscious choices about who you are ‘being’ in the room
- how to leverage your clients’ and your own present experiences to encourage growth
- new actionable ideas that will immediately add a new dimension to your coaching practice
A pioneering pilot course, this Mindfulness Coaching course consists of 5 weekly sessions, each lasting 2 hours, offering an immersive experience that balances theory with hands-on practice.
This course is accredited with ICF, ensuring that it meets the highest standards of coach training excellence. Upon completion of this course, you will receive 15 ICF Continuing Coaching Education (CCE).
Who is this mindfulness coach training program for?
Our mindfulness coach training program is crafted for those who are committed to enhancing their coaching practice, attracting more clients, and providing a profound, transformative experience.
It’s for professionals who recognise the power of presence and wish to deepen their capacity to facilitate change.
This program is for you if
- You often catch yourself stuck in models, tools, and frameworks during your sessions instead of making conscious choices and responding to what is happening.
- You invite your clients to reflect on the problem they are facing instead of how they feel about it.
- You catch yourself making judgments or approaching the client’s challenge with pre-conceptions instead of making space for what they are experiencing.
- You feel uncomfortable when strong feelings show up instead of welcoming what is emerging with no judgement.
- You believe everything the client is telling you instead of understanding that the stories they share are based on their perceptions and assumptions.
- You unconsciously avoid “places” you do not want to visit instead of skilfully sharing your experience.
- You allow the client to stay in the past or future but not so much in the present — the only real experience!
- Your client’s goals are more important than their own wellbeing in the present moment, and you accept that instead of helping them see the impact on who they are being.
If any of these resonate with you, our course offers not just a qualification but a transformational shift in how you approach coaching.

What does a mindfulness coach do?
A mindfulness coach is a specialised practitioner who brings the principles of mindfulness into their coaching practice, not just to their own life.
As a mindfulness coach, you can leverage these practices to enhance your clients’ self-awareness and mindful living and help them navigate the complexities of life with greater clarity, calm, and presence.
Mindfulness Coaching: The art of partnering with clients in a grounded and thought-provoking process that nurtures their awareness in the present moment.
A Mindfulness Coach brings presence to the conversation with an attitude of curiosity and non-judgment. It’s about creating a space for your client to amplify their self-awareness while keeping the conversation in the now.
It is not just about speaking to the person behind the problem, but also about engaging with that person as a whole in the here and now — and this might be different from who they were yesterday or who they will be after the session.
Mindfulness Coaching equips clients with tools to face life’s challenges with a moment-to-moment, spacious attitude.
Through our Mindfulness Coach Certification Course, we delve into the essential skills required for effective mindfulness coaching.
You will learn how to integrate mindfulness seamlessly into life coaching, enabling you to support clients in cultivating a mindful approach to their personal and professional lives.

What this course is not
This course is meticulously designed to hone your coaching skills with a mindfulness approach, not to turn you into a meditation instructor. It won’t teach you how to run meditation courses.Nor will it teach you how to facilitate meditations or breathing techniques.
While we acknowledge the rich historical tapestry of mindfulness, this course won’t give you an overview of the roots of mindfulness. Additionally, while neuroscience principles behind coaching and mindfulness are acknowledged, this course won’t teach in-depth neuroscience principles. Lastly, we won’t touch on the religious aspect of mindfulness.
Our focus remains steadfast on the practical integration of mindfulness principles into coaching. We’re here to build upon your existing skills as a coach, empowering you to foster presence and awareness in your clients rather than delving into areas that fall outside the realm of coaching.
