Description

Dive into the foundations of philosophy, exploring the works of existentialist thinkers and their approach to freedom, choice, and responsibility. Philosophy offers tools to critically examine human existence, while mindfulness practices complement this by enhancing awareness of thoughts, emotions, and decisions. Life coaching principles will be integrated to demonstrate how philosophy and mindfulness can guide personal and professional growth. Throughout the course, philosophy will be examined in the context of daily life, helping learners understand how existentialism informs freedom and responsibility, and how mindfulness strengthens this understanding.

By combining philosophy with mindfulness, students will explore how conscious choices shape their life paths. Life coaching techniques will highlight practical applications of existentialist ideas, showing how philosophy, mindfulness, and life coaching interconnect to foster clarity, confidence, and purposeful action. Philosophy provides the framework, mindfulness enhances awareness, and life coaching delivers actionable strategies to navigate life with responsibility and freedom.

Throughout the course, learners will study case studies, reflective exercises, and theoretical perspectives where philosophy, mindfulness, and life coaching intersect. By exploring the ethical, emotional, and psychological dimensions of freedom, philosophy and mindfulness will deepen understanding, while life coaching practices will provide pathways to implement these insights. Students will leave the course with a solid foundation in philosophy, enriched mindfulness practices, and actionable life coaching tools for meaningful personal and professional growth.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
