Breathing & Relaxation: an experiential and restorative workshop

Many of us know that focused breathing and relaxation can be a useful way to help people feel calmer, more centered, mindful, balanced, in control… But how confident do you feel about engaging with clients in this way to find a way forward that feels right for them?

This workshop is designed for you if…

• You would like to build your confidence to introduce and demonstrate calm breathing with clients
• You want to understand more clearly, experientially, how focused breathing can help
• You want an opportunity to experiment and try things out for yourself in a safe, supportive environment before introducing them to clients
• You sometimes feel that guided relaxation would be beneficial to clients, but feel nervous or unsure about how to structure and present this
• You fancy a calming, restorative study day, with some gentle tasks that you can apply to yourself as well as clients

This workshop is not for you if…

• You want lots of theory and neuroscience! We will be experimenting, experiencing and learning through doing. It will hopefully feel like a nourishing, restorative day,
