The uncongested river setting is a great way to navigate London 🫶🏼

I'm really looking forward to delivering four workshops this week to raise awareness of mental health.

And to put a focus on mental wellbeing through moving our bodies more, in ways that work with our bodies!

At school I was repeatedly told by classmates not to participate in sports in case I made the team lose.

For years I didn't exercise much as I did not believe it was for me....until I discovered my joy in practising yoga five years ago, and more recently in dancing.

An uplifting reunion with Ovartaci today.
Such an incredible artist.
The vibrancy of both imagery and colour is breathtaking 💫
I wrote my master's thesis on Ovartaci and on Outsider Art in 2009 as I was fascinated by the human spirit and the huge journeys many of us travel towards understanding, acceptance and healing of the self 🫶🏼

Today I passed my mandatory requalification assessment to deliver Ofqual regulated short qualifications in First Aid for Mental Health.
Since first qualifying just under three years ago I have trained people working in many job roles: coaches, HR folk, line managers, teachers, carers, duty managers and more.
They all reach a wide network of people through their jobs and I feel confident that this training adds to their skill sets to confidently support others around their mental health.
I have learnt so much from every session I have delivered, and am grateful to all who have contributed to this journey with me.
Here's to the next three years of raising mental health awareness! 🫶🏼🙏🏼
- EVERY day is a mental health day, not just 10th October...💚

In London for a few weeks of work and play.
Spending time out of the country recently has made me feel quite unsettled.
The energy and pace in this city is strong: creative, aggressive, dynamic... somewhere between exhausted and exhilarating

Take action this World Mental Health Day by investing in upskilling yourself and your teams in First Aid for Mental Health.

Every person who undertakes this short training can gain confidence to support a colleague, client or friend who is struggling with their mental health and to signpost them to the right support.

Every person can raise their awareness to the stigma we all face around having poor mental health and thereby help to reduce the impact.

Why chose me to deliver the course to your team?

I have delivered certified First Aid for Mental Health short qualifications across front facing teams for the past three years and have significant experience in incorporating scenarios and answering questions which are relevant to teams working with the general public as well as in high volume settings.

I use my extensive experience as a duty manager and senior leader as well as an accredited coach to ensure that the training is tailored to complex operational situations and managerial needs and that the space is supportive, so delegates feel safe exploring sensitive topics relating to mental health.

Look at my LinkedIn profile in the Bio to see if I am a good fit for you or your organisation and get in touch with me today.

Take action to build better wellbeing cultures.

I'm on my way to Ischia for a five day yoga retreat.
This is my gift to myself for having had an amazing proper first post-covid year in my business.
I've been looking forward to this for six months, yet in the past few weeks I have felt less excited....

Flights were cancelled, a lot of change is happening in my life, people showed different sides than I expected which has affected me.
I've felt unsure about leaving without my son, about spending the money, about taking the time out...

I know these thoughts are rooted in old ways of feeling and thinking.
I know they don't help me.

My intention for the next few days is to practice non-attachment: to my thoughts and feelings, to what I can't change or influence and ramp up my gratitude for all the amazing moments that come to me in life.
Namaste 🙏🏼🧘‍♀️☀️
