Description
Breath, Body and Mind sessions are recommended for family care partners to learn scientifically proven breathing practices to help reduce stress and anxiety and support them in their caring role. The sessions we offer include gentle movements with breathing techniques. All the practices are simple and easy to learn and can be adapted for just about anybody. During the sessions you are provided with tailored resources so you can continue to practice at home and make the most of your breathing resource. The sessions can be either group based with other carers or 1-2-1.
Here are some comments from family care partners who have been on our courses:
“A wonderful holistic experience that let me reflect on my self care, as a carer and transform the way I deal with stressful and unsettling situations”.
“It was extremely beneficial to me.”
“Helped me with ways of coping in very stressful situations.”
“Having attended the course and learned about breath body mind it slowly becomes a natural exercise to do at home.”
“By focusing your mind on your breathing, it calms and de-stresses.”
“Certainly felt better and had an awareness of how the body felt different and better from taking part.”
