How often do you just stop to feel the warmth of the sun on your face and listen to birdsong? (Appreciate it's been tricky lately with the weather!)

Some of you may know that alongside my counselling practice I've been working one day a week with the NHS Recovery and Wellbeing College for the past year. Today was my last day before moving to a counselling role at Maidstone Hospital and what a last day it was - spending time in nature, helping people to take time out and focus on their wellbeing. If you're looking for gentle ways to connect with nature and new people, I'd highly recommend the FREE Wilder Wellbeing courses, run by Recovery College in partnership with Kent Wildlife Trust.

There are plenty of things around this time of year to help you be mindful. What sounds, smells, sights, textures and tastes can you find?

Reel shows smell in the form of a scented candle, sights in the form of a snow globe and a pebble with drawings based on a Christmas jumper, and sound and texture in the form of tinsel.

What masks do you wear? Is it time to enable the real you to make an appearance? I can help you explore what's underneath the mask and give you space to be seen and heard.

I don't often post inspirational quotes, but how could I ignore the wise words of Superman? 😉🦸🏻‍♂️

Sometimes we can be so focused on meeting the expectations placed on us by ourselves and others, that we can forget to be human, to allow ourselves to feel, to allow ourselves to screw up. Even superheroes get scared and it's OK if you do too.
