Class/Workshop feedback:
Since starting The Me Program & also doing other courses with Inward Bound my life has changed big style. I have made some pretty big changes & overcome some big hurdles in these last few months.
I found that just taking that small amount of time throughout the day for just me has help me cope with issues & illness.
Learning about who I am & also starting to like myself again. I know there are more challenges ahead but I know after doing these courses & continuing with the techniques that I have learnt I WILL make a success of my life ahead. Thank you so much Marie. - Tracy, Middlesbrough.
This course has not only helped me, it’s helped my whole family. Changes I have made and things you have taught me has helped us talk as a family. Time love and encouragement have been words that have stuck with me throughout this course and using them daily sees changes in life for the better.
My biggest change that I needed to work through was how I could help my son. I now know I’ve put a lot of pressure on myself to try and follow in my mam and grandma footsteps, as they are so special, and I felt I needed to live up to that.
What this has taught me is to relax and to know I am surrounded with love, friend and family and that’s all I need.
Taking Me time and putting my energy first is valuable to my whole family life. You are inspirational and I really appreciate how you have helped me and my son see the bigger picture and hope from this I can teach him to make some right decisions. Thank you so much.- Lyndsey. Grangetown.
Since being introduced to inward Bound I have taken part in multiple course, workshops, classes and events, which I have benefited from physically and mentally. I have grown so much as a person and gained a better understanding of myself and I can't thank the team enough for their support, guidance and all the hard work they put into the organisation. What you are doing is amazing and I highly recommend – Stacey J. - Middlesbrough
Since finding inward bound I soon realised that I had no quality time for me. I knew I had to make changes in my life. Marie Cunningham was absolutely fantastic in showing us ways of doing this. Meditation is a way that I can relax and take time for myself, I still meditate regularly, and I find that I feel better after. The course is quite deep, and it makes you question everything about yourself. We learnt about our body and how it all works which I found absolutely fascinating, also about how foods affect us. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and it helped me reaffirm that I had been loved throughout my childhood by my family. It also helped me realise that it’s ok to say no to people and not to feel bad about it. A totally wonderful experience – Olwyn P. – Eston
Hi I have been attending workshops, events and days out with this group and can't praise the support and help I have had. Its made a big difference to my life. I have some physical and emotional health problems and was very down and withdrawn when I first found this group. To be honest I was turning into a recluse really the more I didn't go out the less I felt like it and also suffered from depression as wasn't seeing many people etc.
Now as I have been given advice on how to cope on my bad days etc and encouraged to join classes and activities feel do much better. Thank you for your help. 😊 X Jan. Middlesbrough
It has helped me to understand some of the changes I need to make to move along the path of improving my situation in life. Marie doesn’t sugar coat this aspect of the journey and rightly so because without putting in the effort then the hoped for changes won’t happen. - Paul, Darlington
“I started attending classes on a Friday and some of the workshops, these helped me loads, I went from being on the highest level of anti depressants, to not being on any, in just a few months of attending, I cannot praise Marie enough for the help and the work that she does, hopefully (without any doubt) Inward Bound will help more people.”
Thanks Kerry. Blackpool.
Hi everyone, I'm on the Me Program and have just finished my second of a five week course, I was beginning to think it was a bit over my head but I suddenly had my light bulb moment! Looking forward to next week, it's fascinating - Auriel. Middlesbrough
Hi, Just a little note to say a Huge Thank You for your fabulous course i attended in May to July, from arriving to the course and not knowing where i was in life i was lost with having no time, no direction and low esteem to now being focused and assertive and driven, This course has made a huge difference not only to me but to my family and friends as well, without your group support class and guidance i don't know where in life i would have ended, i still use techniques (Making time for Relaxing, also Meditating) , I think these course's you have set up and worked so hard on are a true reflection of how much you are really willing and wanting to help others, just this weekend i have recommended a lady to your course and should be in touch with you. Thank you again for everything,
Kind Regards

Before I started Feel Good Fridays my mental health was very poor i was suffering from severe depression and anxiety Attacks. However thinks to Marie and her sessions was able to manage my condition and go from employment support allowance onto job-seekers allowance. Jamie S. - Middlesbrough
I attended a workshop ‘living from the heart’. I went in to the group with an open mind… I knew that I had some issues I needed to work through. My mood was quite flat although I got up went to work full time and continued my daily routines once home. I found that some relationships in my life were not quite right.
So …. I attend the course weekly and was amazed at by how I felt after each meditation…. Each week was different and you worked through different issues. Don’t get me there were times were I cried and cried and at one point I couldn’t even bring myself to talk, and feedback to the group how and what I had experienced during a mediation . But I do know this…. I cleared so much clutter out of my life. I attracted better situations/ people in to my life…. My outlook and purpose in life was clearer and I started living for me and those that mattered.
I would highly recommend this course to any one…. Even if you feel you have no issues, as it will surely get you to look at you and life differently. Social Care Worker. Middlesbrough
It is so refreshing to attend your class on my lunch hour if only to get away from the office for peace, quiet and relaxation. I find your classes extremely interesting and your ability to provide an insight into the need to relax and remove stress is greatly received. I enjoy particularly the meditation sessions. I look forward to your classes and have recommended them to friends alike and feel that it sets me in good stead to enjoy my weekend. Joanne
Really enjoyed the course. Not only did it give me the chance to slow the pace of everyday sprint and dashing around, it also gave me tools to value the importance of knowing who we are, what we are aiming for in life and what we need to do to get there. It’s all about the self, allowing time for thyself and being happy with who we are. Claire. Darlington.
Just a note to so say huge thanks. At the time service users were unsure as to what benefits they would reap from this workshop, but as the groups continued it was very clear the service you provide had major impact on their positive well being. J.F. Living Life
Thank you very much for taking the time to come & do the class, the service users & staff that did it thought that it was very good & really enjoyed it. The Albert Centre.
I have found the meditation course both helpful and most enjoyable. I found the breathing techniques particularly beneficial as they complimented the relaxation class I take at the centre on a Monday. All the other things she introduced to us have also helped me and I only hope that it is possible for us to be able to have further sessions in the future. Eileen. Middlesbrough
I recently took part in one of the workshops and found it fascinating! I'd highly recommend them to anyone and have already booked myself on several others. -utube
Fab workshop! Big respect for what you do! :) Mandy. Middlesbrough
