Workshop: Protecting Against Overwhelm with Self-Care
A Short Pause is a self-care, mental health & mindfulness workshop designed to rejuvenate you on a mental and physical level. When we practice effective self-care techniques we can increase our energy, strength and resilience so we can show up as the best version of ourselves.
When we don’t take care of ourselves, are too hard on our body, or don’t take care of our emotional needs, we are at much higher risk for burnout, a variety of mental health issues including anxiety and depression, physical injury and illness.
Spend a nurturing day with our mental health experts and Learn how to nurture and care for your body-mind through self-care techniques. We utilise both body and mind approaches to help you gain clarity and compassion for yourself and to release tension from your body leaving you feeling refreshed, restored and invigorated.
During the workshop we will explore:
Together we will explore Self-Care by:
