September Self-Care. Starting the Month Mindfully

Welcome, September. This is your gentle reminder that you don’t need to rush. You need to reconnect.

Here are 5 ways to start the month with intention:
- Journal 3 intentions for how you want to feel
- Begin each morning with a calm ritual
- Set healthy boundaries with screen time
- Book one “joy appointment” each week
- Affirm: “I don’t have to do everything. Just what matters most.”

Whether you’re starting a new course, switching careers, or simply focusing on your well-being, this is your space to breathe.

👉 What’s one intention you’re setting for September? Share in the comments. Let’s inspire each other.

Our second Substack article is now live!

This time, we’re reflecting on something close to the heart, why gathering in person still matters, even in a world of Zoom calls and online learning.

It’s a personal look at connection, community, and why we’re inviting you to join us this October for something truly special.

New on the Blog

We’re not the loudest in the wellness world, and that’s intentional.

At AHG, we’ve always chosen substance over show. No funnels. No flashy promises. No sales tactics. Just real training, grounded in integrity, depth, and lived experience.

In our latest blog post, we share why we do things differently, and why that difference matters more than ever.

Our Story

We are one of the longest established providers of Sports massage and Sports Therapy courses in the UK. Active Health Group is a recognised, professional and progressive training provider. Our unrivalled courses in Sports Massage, Myofascial Release, Sports Therapy and Equine Sports Therapy take our students all the way up to degree-level. This enables Active Health Group graduates access to some of the best opportunities available and a lasting career in this exciting industry. We are the ONLY private training provider in the UK to not only cover ALL of the Sports Therapy National Occupational Standards, but we greatly exceed them! All of Active Health Group practitioner level courses meet Core Curricula and our Level 4 & 5 courses meet the minimum qualification requirement for working in ELITE SPORT. Active Health Group Practitioner Level Massage and Sports Therapy graduates are able to register with the Sports Therapy Organisation, the UK's premier membership organisation for qualified therapi sts and students. Through STO, our graduates are able to thereafter register with the Complementary & Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC), the UK regulator of complementary healthcare. Active Health Group is therefore in a fantastic position to give our graduates support and access to the best jobs in sport in the industry.

Since 2010 we have also been running coaching courses, starting with Emotional Intelligence Coaching, and have created many different Psychology related courses.

In 2018 we developed the first truly Integrative Health & Nutrition Diploma course, and this is now one of our most popular programmes, alongside our Level 5 Advanced Sports Therapy course.
