Anxiety Course

Anxiety is present in us all, however sometimes our anxiety can feel out of control, and we may struggle to do day to day things. In this four week course we explore different aspects of anxiety, from how anxiety affects our body, to the impact our thoughts have on our feelings and actions. Each week we identify tools and strategies to help gain a sense of empowerment and practise different techniques to create a sense of calm. Throughout the course we aim to build our internal and external resources to manage our anxiety better.

Healthy Relationships

In this course we discover the different features of healthy versus unhealthy relationships of all kinds (friendships, family, colleagues and so on). We will reflect on how our past might influence our relationships and look ahead at how we can make choices to nurture positive relationships. There is a focus on self-connection and self-worth as a starting place for understanding boundaries and getting curious about our needs to support overall wellbeing.

Understanding Trauma

This 4-week course identifies what trauma is and how our brain and body respond to it. Recognising how trauma affects our relationships with other people as well as with ourselves, we explore the ‘inner critic’ and focus on compassion as a key element to improving both. We also discover ways in which we can create a sense of safety, developing strategies and tools which can help us reclaim our lives.
