Our story
At pauseful, we know that taking a moment to pause, breathe, and be present can transform lives. Our journey began in 1996 when our founder, Dane Jacka, discovered the power of mindfulness meditation and over many years experienced the focus, calm, insight and confidence that resulted. Dane trained in a number of meditation traditions and commenced teaching mindfulness in 2010. In 2020, Dane began to gather a team of skilled, experienced and passionate individuals, all committed to empowering people to transform their personal and professional worlds through mindfulness practice. Since then, we have been on a mission to lead a gentle transformation to a mindful world.
To foster a gentle transformation in our global community that values mindfulness and its positive impact on mental, emotional, and physical well-being in all aspects of our lives.
To empower individuals to reclaim their focus, calm and presence with the tools and knowledge to cultivate mindfulness and maintain their well-being.
To guide organisations to nurture calm, focused, high-performing, creative and innovative teams that experience positive wellbeing at work.
To make mindfulness practices accessible to everyone, regardless of age, background, or experience level.
Our mission
At pauseful, we take a holistic approach to mindfulness education, blending ancient wisdom and modern science with heart. Our programs are carefully designed by a team of experienced mindfulness practitioners, tailored to your needs and delivered with compassion and authenticity. We emphasize the importance of self-compassion, curiosity, and non-judgment in our practice, creating a safe and nurturing environment for growth and self-discovery.
