Positive Health Plus

Upward Spirals is a unique teaching programme that aims to challenge, encourage and support individuals, groups and communities to live happier, healthier and more flourishing lives. Our exciting new workshops and courses combine Positive psychology, mindfulness practice and the foundations of health - current trends on nutrition, exercise and sleep - in an integrated approach to health & wellbeing. Maggie Bevington MSc. (Applied Positive Psychology), SRN., NDn Cert., RSHom. is a passionate Positive Psychology advocate and practitioner. Having worked in the NHS for 20 years - predominantly as a community nursing sister – she went on to complete a five year training in complementary medicine and has been in private practice since 1994. During this time Maggie has also designed and delivered many workshops and lectures at natural health centres, schools and universities in Staffordshire. She loves sharing her knowledge and experience with a relaxed, informal teaching style and lots of humour. Since 2014, Maggie has used Positive Psychology 'tools' in her holistic therapies practice 'Positive Health Plus ' in Newcastle-under-Lyme and now focuses on teaching. With her background in conventional and complementary medicine, plus psychological science, she has a truly rounded perspective on the importance of integrating physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of health to achieve optimal wellbeing. Having seen real benefits in her current client base, she is eager to bring this knowledge and experience to the wider community.

“I see Positive Psychology as a forward-thinking science. With a growth mindset, it is possible to integrate traditional and complementary approaches to health care to promote flourishing health and wellbeing in individuals, families and communities in all areas of life.”

By bringing together traditional and complementary approaches to healthcare and adding the science of Positive Psychology, an exciting synergy is created. In developing a positive mindset, a strong character and a healthy body, Upward Spirals will show you how you can flourish at work, home, in relationships and everyday life!
