Mindful Days and Relaxation
Through my years of working in the field of holistic therapies, I have found that many of you are in need of some tips and tools to help switch off those annoying thoughts that can eventually manifest as stress and disharmony within the body.
Mindfulness is the new buzz word…. but actually it’s something that has been around for many years. It’s not new, but people are becoming very receptive to it as it’s a way of de-stressing without the worry and the out of depth feeling that comes with learning how to meditate by sitting on a mossy hillock somewhere! Not everyone wants to learn yoga or go on a vegetarian retreat….but they need something to help balance the stresses of 21st Century living.
How do you do it? What is it? Do you need it?
Many people are being sent on Mindfulness by their GP and have amazing results. These courses that run over a period of 8 weeks as an evening class, and are hugely successful, but not suited for everyone due to the time commitment required. The Workshop Day I have developed is held at the beautiful Langford House in Somerset and is designed for those who would like an insight into Mindfulness. A way to work with your breath. To be able to recognise stress within you body and deal with it in a gentle way.
All the dates for this year are now full, but bookings are being taken for 2014

Your day will include being able to scan your body with focused breathing techniques to enable you to notice tension and know how to address it. We explore Mindful Eating and its uses, and how to chose our thoughts. We practice how to use these techniques in every day life, with some outdoor work if the weather permits.
A delicious 2 course lunch cooked by Ollie the chef, and afternoon tea with cake is included in your day. You will leave with a full manual so you can continue the work at home.
This is a small group workshop, limited to 8 places, and is is not being run as a group therapy session. A very friendly informative day in beautiful surroundings.
