I am SO excited for these extended festive sessions!

These sold out last year so please get in touch or book early if you'd like to come along :)

Exactly what it says on the tin we will be taking an hour and a half to simply relax!

We will start with a relaxing craft, a warm drink and a snack to help us to start to unwind, followed by relaxing breathwork and meditations to help us to let go of all of the stress we have been accumulating over the year!

The festive period is of course a time where we practice generosity and gratitude but it can also be a wonderful time to turn our attention inward and give ourselves some of that same generosity and compassion that we give to others.

We deserve this!

Tickets are now on sale and available on my usual booking site, if you want to find out more please do get in touch :)

(if there's a little group of you coming please let me know and I will offer a special rate and an easier way to book!)

How often are you focusing your attention on the future?

The thing is - we cannot predict the future.

It can be easy to stay focused on the future and chasing our dreams - but please don't get lost doing this.

Find yourself in this present moment and realise what you have!

Start working towards your dreams from a place of gratitude and contentment

I've started my session planning for the next term of Breathe & Be!

Part of this process for me is reflecting on previous feedback from during sessions as well as after the term has finished.

I just wanted to show some feedback with you all as I know these sorts of sessions can seem a bit daunting or you may well feel like you're unsure what you'd get out of it.

In my experience these sessions are brilliant for introducing principles of mindfulness, support you to practice meditations, and supporting you to learn and practice simple breath techniques to support you to regulate and relax.

If you'd like to:
- Take time for yourself
- Learn about mindfulness / meditation / breath
- Spend time in a supportive, warm group
- Snuggle up in a cosy room once a week and have time for yourself
- Improve your wellbeing

This may well be the group for you!

Breathe & be is a 6 week term - this is because the consistency of the group and the consistency of the practice are key.

I do offer other sessions which are pay as you go which are held in Cubbington twice a month on Sunday mornings at Little Light Studio.

Please drop me a message or comment below if you're curious I'd love to chat and answer your questions :)

Coming up!

I want to tell you all about the sessions that I run in Kenilworth & Cubbington - especially as I have a couple of spaces left for my next term starting this Thursday evening!

www.warwickshire-mindfulness.co.uk

These sessions are an hour long and within them we practice mindfulness (being present), meditation and calming breathwork.
These sessions and practices support people to :
- Relax & release tension
- Incorporate meditation and breathwork into their every day
- Understand their nervous systems & how to regulate them
- Manage stress & anxiety
- Improve Sleep
- Generally be more present
- Incorporate new wellbeing habits into your every day!

I am a qualified mindfulness teacher & breath coach and I use my 10+ years experience in mental health and my MSc in Psychology to support you all.

The groups are friendly, small and all include cosy blankets and candlelight as standard to help you to feel welcome, safe and to help you to unwind.

Whether you're new to all of this or you want to create a more regular practice you will be welcomed with open arms!
(Chairs available if you are unable to sit on the floor)

I also offer corporate courses, workshops & 1:1s as well as
1:1s in person or online and family sessions 🙂
Please comment or message for more information! 🙂

Home My Mindfulness journey really started after having children during covid when I began a regular meditation practice to support myself with my wellbeing. I couldn't believe the difference that it was making at first - I was able to manage my anxiety better, I was sleeping better and I was just a much...

Mindfulness!

Here are some of the ways that I've found mindfulness has positively impacted on my anxiety!

Since I have started regular mindfulness practices I have seen a huge shift in how I experience anxiety!

Yes I still have struggles - however I am able to identify, observe and let go SO much easier now!

And this is what will naturally come with regular practices as they quite literally support with re-wiring your brain!

Whilst in mindfulness we don't try to achieve anything - you'd be amazed at what regular practice can bring to your life!

If you'd like some tips on everyday mindfulness for a less anxious mind then get in touch!

And of course I'd love to welcome you for our group practices of 1:1 support :)

So I've pulled out a few things that I've heard recently about Mindfulness practices and wanted to debunk them a little bit!

I know it can feel like we see mindfulness as somebody very serenely meditating, sat with a perfect posture and looking incredibly calm.

But it's not ! It can be! And it can be other things to!

We can bring mindfulness practices into all areas of our lives - drives to work, walking, getting ready for bed.

And it can absolutely be a spiritual experience for you! Or not!

What are or were your initial feelings around mindfulness or pre-conceptions?

REGULATION!

How many of us truly understand the best ways to regulate our nervous system - or what this even means?

It is incredibly important for us to be able to center ourselves - at work, at home, out and about.

In life so many things can trigger us to feel stressed, anxious, heightened.

In life so many things can trigger us to feel low, withdrawn and depressed.

In life there are so many tools, practices and habits that we can learn and bring into our daily lives that will help us to regulate.

If you feel stuck or like you're spending too much time in those heightened or low states it could be that you need some support.

This support could come in the form of exercise, meditation, breathwork, therapy or even lifestyle and routine changes.

If you're interested in learning more about how you can regulate OR if you feel that your colleagues would benefit from this support then please do get in touch as the support I can provide could prove to be life-changing.

Sending you all love,

Read it again!

Life isn't about productivity!

And you are more than what you produce!

I think it is such a shame that we are taught that our worth is defined by our achievements, what we create or tick off our to do lists!

Don't forget the importance of reflecting on who you are, how you feel and allow yourself that time to just be in the moment!

I'd even go as far as to say get some time booked in each day this week and allow yourself to just be - don't do something "productive" - just actually be you and know that this is beautiful.

Sending love

There are many benefits of meditation - but these cam to my mind straight away.

I think that for me as somebody who can struggle with anxiety the biggest changes have been around how I approach my worries and how I regulate myself - I'm of course a work in progress and still have struggles but through these practices I really think I'm finding my way!

I'd love to learn more about what you've noticed since taking up a regular meditation practice - or perhaps there are areas of your life you'd like to work on and you're curious as to whether meditation could support with this!

Either way get in touch ! :) 🥰

Love to you all

Always looking for signs that I’m in the right place 🪽

I feel like I’m having a bit of a wild time at the moment and definitely on an intense journey of self discovery!

I am a huge advocate for living in alignment and I’m recognising some symptoms of not feeling aligned at the moment:
- feeling unsure in my gut
- not eating healthily consistently
- not nourishing myself or taking regular exercise

On reflection I think that:
I’m not spending enough time in nature
I’m not allowing enough rest
My work is a work in progress and I need to practice more patience and trust

I am noticing that as I’m making decisions that I am aligned with things just “feel right”, I feel calm, confident and often find little signs from the universe too 💫🪽

I will be making time today to meditate, journal and think about planning my weekend in a really intentional and aligned way - including lots of nature, meditation, connection and learning 🙏🏻

If you’re not living in a way aligned with your truth and your values you may find yourself not feeling quite right and also not making the best choices for yourself. This is very normal - and when we are going through periods of change as I am now it’s expected and part of the process.

Mindfulness supports us to turn our attention inward and reflect. Through these practices I’m able to become more aware of myself in body mind and spirit.
At this point in my life these practices are more important than ever as I need to be sure I am making decisions that are aligned with me, my values and my truest self 🙏🏻

I could chat about this at length but if this is striking a chord with you maybe drop me a message or comment below and we can see how maybe I can support 🙏🏻💫

Love to you all 💕🙏🏻

Booking Open now on Website!
https://warwickshire-mindfulness.live.baluu.co.uk/event/breathe-and-be-1710943719

When: Thursday Evenings 7:30-8:30pm
7th November - 12th December

Where: Halo Physio, Kenilworth

Who: Beginners to experienced meditators!

What: Gentle and calming meditations, mindfulness practices and breathwork to guide you to the present moment, release tension and improve your wellbeing

Why?
We spend so much of our lives in "autopilot"! Our minds in the past or the future or simply elsewhere.
These practices help to ground us in the present moment and help us to really check in with ourselves and regulate our minds and bodies.
In turn you may find that you:
- Sleep better
- Manage stress better
- Improve your breathing
- Improve relationships
- Build resilience
- Reduce anxiety
- Improve self compassion and love

Since I started these practices I have noticed huge reductions in my anxiety (including frequency, intensity and recovery), better sleep, more present for my family, making more healthy choices and making some incredible connections with others from these groups!

I would LOVE for you to join me so if this sounds like something that you may benefit from please drop me a comment or a message.

If you have a loved one who would benefit please tag them below :)

Warwickshire Mindfulness | The Mini-Retreats Mindfulness groups and courses in Warwickshire aimed at improving your wellbeing and helping you to be more present.

There is no better gift to your loved ones than your presence 💕

When we are fully present we:
- listen fully
- communicate better
- take everything in more
- are the best version of ourselves

When our minds are elsewhere, we are on our devices or generally not paying attention we are simply not present.

When our family, friends and other loved ones are a huge priority in our lives this can not only reduce the quality of our interactions but we can also end up feeling un-aligned as after all our behaviours aren’t matching with our values!

With me let’s make a commitment this week to do our best to be more present for our loved ones 💕
They deserve that and so do we 💕
