We hope you found this event of value, where we provided a combination of services including exercise and nutrition presentations. As you will have learnt on the day, our health and wellbeing is multifactorial and these factors interlink. Meaning different aspects of our wellbeing can have a positive or negative affect on other aspects too, dependent on our lifestyle and behaviours.

If you would like signposting to more in-depth reading on any aspect of what you may have discussed, please don't hesitate to ask. There isn't one book which pulls all our content together but there are great specialists out there on parts of it. We have compiled our own resources to try and help and these are explained further below together with links you can use to access them.

RESOURCES

The following relaxation technique can help you to get to sleep and back to sleep. It is important to remember that, as with most skill development or learning, progress is not always linear. Sometimes we will find it hard to focus our attention and our minds will wander more one day than on other days. Don’t try to mentally force the exercises. Enjoy them as peaceful calming moments. Bring a relaxed awareness and a patient mindset to each period of practice. There may be days or weeks when practice feels difficult. This is fine. It is the regular practice that is important and not how well you do in each period of practice.

When practising any relaxation, mindfulness or meditation techniques if you should experience any emotional or physical discomfort that feels overwhelming then open your eyes and select objects in the room to focus on. Picking up their shape and colour. It may also help to place your feet on the floor and experience the sensation of the floor beneath your feet as a comforting solid sensation. Give yourself a few minutes to re-engage your senses with the room. Please consider discussing your experience with your GP or other medical professional. The following exercises are not meant as a replacement for any medical advice and are provided for educational and general wellbeing purposes only. If you are suffering from any mental or physical health issues you should always bring these to the attention of any teacher providing instruction with such exercises.
