The Calm Within

05/02/2025

It was a pleasure to lead the staff at Mulberry Bush Nursery Group in an online relaxation session this evening.

We began with a mindful moment, had a hand and face massage, gently brought awareness to our body through autogenic relaxation, engaged in mindful breathing and journeyed to a peaceful beach through a guided visualisation.

The staff work so hard to care for the children in their nurseries, and it was lovely to be able to provide a space for them to relax and unwind.

It's always a delight to spend time in each of the Mulberry Bush Nursery Group nurseries, supporting the start of their 8 week Preschool mindfulness programme.

The programme runs each year but the attitudes of mindfulness are incorporated into every day.

I'm excited to share that I am now on the next part of my counselling journey and have commenced my Level 6 Supervision Training.

As part of the course, I am looking to offer reduced rate supervision to a small number of supervisees.

If you are a counsellor and are considering a change of supervisor or feel you would benefit from any extra supervision, please do get in touch.

I am a registered member of the BACP and my core training is person-centred. I have a therapy room in Bury and can work face-to-face or online. As a counsellor, I have experience working within the NHS, schools and charity organisations. I have worked in private practice for the past 8 years, and work with adults and young people, in a neuro-affirming, creative way.

If you would like to find out more or book a free 30 minute introductory call, please email aislinn@thecalmwithin.co.uk

(The sessions will be offered at a reduced rate whilst training)
