Mia Hayes

Mia Hayes, a teacher back in her previous life, once navigated the bustling corridors of secondary schools in the UK, Singapore and Australia. Transitioning from the high-paced world of education, Mia redirected her life towards a more mindful journey, focusing on aiding abandoned and abused animals. Having moved from her previous urban residence to a tranquil setting to accommodate her growing number of animal companions – currently comprising four cats and a dog. Mia continues to embody the spirit of a modern woman, skilfully balancing professional achievements with personal and social pursuits. Intrigued by its promise of heightened awareness and inner peace, Mia embarked on a quest to demystify mindfulness for others like her. Her vision materialised into a resource that not only explores the origins and scientific foundations of mindfulness but also presents it in a practical, accessible format. She aimed to create a book seamlessly fitting into busy lifestyles, offering strategies for managing anxiety, enriching relationships, and fostering restful sleep. Mia's journey is marked by a sincere effort to conquer feelings of overwhelm and anxiety, sharing effective strategies that have brought calm amidst chaos and deepened connections with those around her. Her passion extends beyond personal growth, embracing a holistic approach to wellness and finding joy in life's simple pleasures. As an author, Mia brings a unique perspective, merging her professional acumen with personal mindfulness experiences. Her writing mirrors her active, engaged, and ever-evolving life. Mia doesn't just write as an expert but as a fellow traveller on the path of self-discovery, making her insights relatable and her guidance practical. Through her work, Mia aspires to lead others toward their own journey of mindfulness, unlocking doors to inner peace and well-being amidst the complexities of the modern world. With four cats and a dog by her side, Mia continues to foster animals, with hopes of adopting more animals in need of care, like abused donkeys from Southern Europe in the near future.
