It was great to be back doing our well being by the sea mindful walks with such a lovely group.

We had amazing light, panoramic seascapes, sea birds, à bee and dolphins made an appearance.

Best of all we all finished being soothed by nature and of course chatting over a lovely cuppa.

Our next walk by the sea is 25 June.

Message us for more details. 🐬

Mindful Monday

‘Mindful Monday’ is a concept that encourages us to begin our week with a focus on mindfulness, a state of being present and aware of the current moment without judgment.

It's a way to reset and refocus at the start of each week , promoting mental wellness.

This Monday why not start your day with a short mindful activity such as ..

✔️A short body scan
Pay attention to your body sensations, noticing any areas of tension or discomfort, and gently releasing them.

✔️Drinking your morning tea/ coffee mindfully 🫖☕️
Feel the warmth of the cup in your hands;the texture of the cup or mug. Sip carefully, let the liquid coat your tongue. What does it taste like? Similar or different to the smell? Repeat until the drink is gone. Taking a deep breath whenever you feel your mind begin to wander. And it will. But that's okay

✔️Taking a mindful walk 🚶
As you walk, notice the sensations in your body, such as the feeling of your feet touching the ground, the movement of your legs, and your breath.
Notice the sounds, sights, smells, and other sensations around you

Mindful Monday

Self-love, self-kindness, self-compassion – whatever you choose to call it – is a really important part of our wellbeing

Mindful self-compassion involves treating yourself with the same kindness & understanding as you would a friend, especially during tough times.

It is a cornerstone to our practise and if you come to our regular sessions we teach simple meditations that help with this
