We're a local community organisation in our 6th year.
We are the brainchild of our founder Marie Cunningham who believed well-being should be freely available and at the time it wasn't.
She sought advice from the MVDA on what was needed to become a community org.
Some of the people who'd benefited from the classes and courses she'd been running privately were only too pleased to form a committee. So funding was sought and accepted by the Big Lottery and the rest as they say is history.
We've helped many people learn to understand themselves and their emotions better, through well-being - emotional healing - mindfulness & meditation and now have two other tutors that deliver classes in Teesside, including to children, which was another of Marie's dreams.
We believe prevention is better than cure!
Why Inward Bound?
Going Outward Bound encourages individuals to test their physical and emotional limits in challenging outdoor adventure programs.
Inward Bound encourages an individual to take an inner journey which relates to what’s happening in the present moment with kindness and curiosity.
Participants in our classes and courses learn self-awareness, empathy, techniques to calm and focus the mind, and mindful communication – the foundations for success in all areas of life.
They also include applying mindfulness skills to daily life, connecting with nature and creative expression.
