Workshops

Please note that these are currently visitation workshops, meaning that you will need to provide the workshop space and I will provide the resources and activities. I do not charge mileage for locations within the Exeter area. Workshops are available between 10am - 4pm, dates dependent on availability, and can run for either 2 or 4 hours.

Positive Perspectives (in person)

These workshops replace the idea of toxic positivity (guilting ourselves into feeling good even when we're struggling) with healthier, more balanced practices in positivity. Using everyday and accessible resources, participants will explore creative and practical tools for wiring the brain to develop sustainably positive thought processes. Each workshop is 2 hours and is suited to seasoned journalers and beginners alike. Maximum 10 participants.

Body Belonging

These workshops expand on the 'body scan' meditation, weaving awareness with guided creative expressions to support participants to reconnect to their bodies, how they feel, and what they need. Strategies taught can be taken forward and practised in daily life, helping to strengthen the mind-body connection that is essential for holistic wellbeing. Maximum 10 participants.

Calming Comparisons

These workshops are for those who tend to compare themselves to others in negative ways. Using creative explorations, participants are guided to reflect on how they are uniquely talented, gifted, and experienced in their own right, and what qualities they possess that others may admire in them. Each workshop is 2 hours and is suited to seasoned journalers and beginners alike. Maximum 10 participants.

'This is me' series

COMING SOON!

This set of workshops focuses on different aspects of self each session: This Is Me Inside (exploring identity), This Is Me With Others (who and how am I in relationship to others), This Is Me In The World (exploring external impactors, hopes, dreams, and achievements). Can be run as 3 sessions, or extended to 6. Each workshop is 2 hours and is suited to seasoned journalers and beginners alike. Maximum 10 participants.

Due to the terrain of the workshop location, those with mobility challenges may wish to have a conversation about suitability before booking. If you have an outdoor space you would like me to run a workshop in, please let me know and we can arrange an assessment visit. All workshops can be run as 2 or 4 hour workshops.

Inviting Nature In

Processing Through Nature

IN DEVELOPMENT

These workshops provide creative and interactive techniques for processing emotional challenges through nature-based interventions. Participants will immerse themselves in the woods and be invited to engage with solo reflections and group discussions around the impact of working with nature to support our emotional wellbeing.

Access one of my workshops from the comfort of your own home. For the purpose of creating and maintaining a safe sharing space for the group, all participants are asked to ensure they have a quiet and confidential space to attend the workshop from. For those who have caring responsibilities and may need others in the room, it is requested that you wear headphones to ensure that the contributions of other group members are kept confidential.

IN DEVELOPMENT

What Long Covid Means To Me

This series of 4, 2-hour, online workshops draws on some of the areas of reflection covered in my Long Covid Mental Health Support Journal. Together we will reflect on how to approach acceptance of a Long Covid Diagnosis, what's been lost to us through the condition, what remains, and 'Who am I now?' with Long Covid. This is not a therapy group, nor is it a diagnostic tool or replacement for medical or psychological support. It is advised it only be attended by participants who feel ready and resilient to look at the condition and what it means for their life and identity.
