Why take this course Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is not only distressing for sufferers but for their family members and friends too. Contrary to the popular view of OCD being harmless over-cleanliness or simply checking things over and over again, people living with OCD experience a high level of anxiety – and the condition can damage their relationships, social and work lives, and physical health. Many sufferers are ashamed of their problem and hide it. Sometimes therapists fail to recognise the rarer forms of OCD and therefore fail to offer effective treatment. And many people with milder forms of OCD do not realise that they can be helped, and do not seek help until their condition becomes much more severe. This accredited live online course offers an in-depth look at OCD in all its guises and focuses on practical and effective methods of treatment – OCD recovery is possible in most cases. The day is interactive and includes demonstration videos of therapy sessions, short video clips, in-depth discussions and case studies. The films of the therapy sessions and the video of dealing with intrusive thoughts were particularly usefulSCHOOL NURSE What will you learn New information that will enable you to help OCD sufferers more effectively A better understanding of OCD, what it is and how it develops The ability to recognise the less familiar types of OCD – these are often missed by both client and therapist An effective 4-step method for treating OCD New ways to help people overcome their compulsive tendencies Illuminating video clips of OCD sufferers describing their experience Helpful ways parents and educators can prevent signs of OCD in children and teenagers from developing further The important role of guided imagery in treatment and why it improves success rates How to separate the person from their OCD ‘Pure O’ – we look at ‘purely obsessional’ OCD, where people experience distressing intrusive thoughts without any external signs of compulsions The chance to observe effective therapy for OCD and discuss case studies How obsessive compulsive disorder fits with other psychological conditions – and with autism What to do when OCD symptoms are firmly entrenched The opportunity to discuss some of your own cases with a highly knowledgeable tutor How to handle challenging cases successfully and more… Course Programme The ‘Obsessive Compulsive Disorder – understanding OCD and how best to treat it’ online course starts at 9.15am and runs until 4.00pm.

EFT, Emotional Freedom Techniques, often known as Tapping, is a cutting-edge therapeutic skill dating from the 1990s that many therapists are learning. Therapists may have originally studied counselling, CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, or one of a number of therapy modalities, and they then learn EFT, or Tapping, in order to improve their offering to their clients. The reason is twofold: 1. The relatively fast, thorough, and long-lasting results – 2. The client is empowered with an easy to use self-help should they wish to use it in-between sessions.

Join us for a transformational Microdose & Breathwork Session We invite you to join us for this extraordinary journey of self-discovery and inner transformation. This session has been designed to help you tap into your inner wisdom, discover your infinite potential, and improve your wellbeing. We will start the session with an opening ritual where you will receive a microdose of the Ayahuasca vine to guide you on your journey. Melissa will then guide you through a Conscious Connected Breathwork session. Conscious Connected Breathwork is a specific breathing exercises focused on deep breathing, whereby an expanded, transcendental state of consciousness can be achieved. In this state, blockages that disturb one's own (energy) flow, such as repressed experiences, feelings and emotions, can be brought to the surface and recognised and dissolved. A feeling of liberation can be experienced in real terms and perceived as a deep connection with the universal whole. In and after light breathing, feelings of relief, freedom, bliss, connectedness and oneness can arise. After the Breathwork session, you’ll continue to lie on your mat, whilst being lulled into a state of deep integrative relaxation with a rejuvenating soundscape. The session will last approximately 1.5 hours. Preparation Guidelines: Hydration: Begin hydrating your body well in advance of the event. Proper hydration supports the Breathwork process and enhances the effects of the microdose. Light Nourishment: Eat a light and easily digestible meal no later than 3 hours before the session. This will provide you with energy without causing discomfort during the session. Avoid Stimulants: Refrain from consuming caffeine or stimulants at least 4-6 hours before the event. This helps to promote a calm and centered state for the breathwork and sound journey. Clothing: Wear comfortable clothing that allows for unrestricted breathing and movement. Layers are recommended, as body temperature may fluctuate during the session. Open Mindset: Approach the journey with an open mind and heart. Set an intention for the experience, whether it's personal growth, stress relief, or spiritual connection. What to bring. Bring some water and a journal. Everything else will be provided.

Level 3 Stone Therapy Course  5 weeks , 10.30- 4.00pm weekdays, one day per week

An evening of Shamanic healing, plant medicine and live music to heal and grow. We invite you to attend an evening of shamanic healing, plant medicine and live music to heal and grow. We are excited to share three powerful medicines from the Amazon with you - Rapé, Sananga and Cacao. There will be adequate time for you to sit with the effects of each medicine while we sing and play to guide you on your journey. You are welcome to simply listen and enjoy the ceremony or if you would like to join in and sing, play or dance, you are welcome to! The Plant Medicines Cacao is known as the "food of the gods.” It has been used for centuries in ceremonial settings to open the heart, connect with our inner essence, and clear stagnant emotional energy from the body. Sip on a warm cup of ceremonial Cacao, prepared with intention and love, as it takes you on a journey and guides you back to your heart. Rapé is a powerful shamanic medicine renowned for its purifying and grounding properties. It is snuff made from tobacco and other medicinal or sacred trees which is applied by being blown into each nostril. Our team will offer individual servings of high-quality Rapé, made by indigenous tribes. You will have the opportunity to choose the strength of your dose, allowing you to navigate this sacred medicine at your own pace. The application of Rapé immediately focuses the mind, stops its chattering, and creates space. It helps release emotional, physical, and spiritual illness and eases negativity and confusion, facilitating clarity, alignment, and a profound connection with yourself. Sananga is a traditional Brazilian medicine used for both spiritual and physical healing. Sananga possesses the ability to clear blocked energies, offering emotional, spiritual, and physical release. The plant-based eye drops are said to enhance eyesight and have long been used by indigenous tribes to prevent and treat ocular diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, near-sightedness, and blindness. Sananga is also commonly used to treat skin diseases, infections, arthritis, cancer, and to clear a person of what is called panema - anxiety, depression, bad luck, negative energies and laziness. This powerful plant guides us towards the roots of our challenges and provides guidance on our healing journey. Preparation You are advised to fast (just water) for at least one hour before the ceremony and avoid any heavily processed or fried foods during the day. Please wear comfortable clothing. If you would like to bring a guitar, drum, shaker or other instrument to play, please do. Price The ticket price for this event is on a sliding scale. Please pay what you can afford.
