Walking Meditation
Posted by siteadmin on October 25, 2018
Walking can really help lighten your mood, release and stimulate chemicals within us to promote feelings of well being, exercises the body as well as the mind and can be a real focus for the day especially if you are struggling with symptoms of depression and/or anxiety, social anxieties and phobias to name just a few. This link offers a 10 minute walking meditation option which can help you make the most from the time you spend making time for yourself – so important x

It’s all about the little steps…
Posted by siteadmin on April 13, 2018
Have just got back from a joggle (the name i give for somewhere in between a walk/trot/jog/run ) and saw this post and thought how fitting it was, physically and emotionally. Counselling is all about the little steps combined with at times giant steps that can occur alongside which enables clients to find their pace and create their stride. It’s hard when we want elements of our life to improve quickly and when we stop fighting that notion then the speed for healing increases. To everyone in counselling or thinking about it – little steps, there are counsellors like - Read More
Boundaries
Posted by siteadmin on April 13, 2018
Boundaries underpin your personal values and sense of self and making sure that they are in place promotes positive well being. Understanding of what is important to you to engage with your yourself and others in a healthy, genuine way gives you the sense of self that knows what feels acceptable and what doesn’t and this is the foundation for a solid core self from which to grow and love.

Identifying controlling/manipulative relationships
Posted by siteadmin on June 29, 2017
Often it’s difficult to realise that we may be being emotionally manipulated to fulfil the low self-esteem or narcissistic tendencies of another. You may be told it’s all your fault, you are the reason why your partner or friend behaves in a certain negative way, that you have ‘driven’ them to act in this way and that you must constantly attempt to make amends for being… ‘abusive or thoughtless’ of their needs.
They might praise you in one breath and then subtly attack you in another leaving you confused and doubting yourself. They might display behaviours such as giving you - Read More

Lovely to see the cabin bathed in sunlight this beautiful September morning.
Even little acts of kindness can make a difference
Posted by siteadmin on September 15, 2016
I wonder what you could do today that could change yours, and maybe even someone else’s day? Little acts of kindness, be it a smile or a nod, giving someone a lift to the shops or popping in to see someone who you know may need a friend right now, not only is good for the receiver but also for the giver x Thank you to my dear friends for their parcels of produce from their gardens which appear on my doorstep and good luck this morning with the brownies and scones – not my finest baking but hopefully they’ll - Read More

Breathing Techniques for Anxiety / Panic Attacks
Posted by on July 15, 2016
Remembering to breathe when we are in a state of anxiety is one of the quickest ways to calm yourself. When we get anxious or panicky our breathing becomes shallow as the danger that we see/perceive to be happening to us or around us alerts us to trigger our flight (run away), fight (stand and attack) or freeze (shut down unable to move and play dead).
The first thing to ask yourself when you begin to feel panicky or anxious is – Is the threat or danger real or in my thoughts/mind?
If it is the former then you must do what - Read More
