Mindfulness

Mindfulness has been described as “nonelaborative, nonjudgmental, present-centered awareness in which each thought, feeling, and sensation that arises is acknowledged and accepted as it is.”

Mindfulness practices transform how we relate to events and experiences, creating a more spacious way of being in a world that is less reactive and generally happier. Regular practice of mindfulness decreases heart rate, blood pressure, and other stress-related symptoms through cultivating awareness, appreciation of the present, and a non-judgmental, curious, and kind attitude.

Additionally, in our emotional resilience workshops, we emphasize the importance of self-care workshops that include mindfulness techniques. Self Compassion is another area in which Bree supports the development of clients’ self-worth.

From Partners to Parents: Relationship Navigation in Parenthood

This workshop is designed to support pre and postnatal couples in navigating the challenges their relationships face after the birth of a baby and their transition into parenthood.

In the midst of caring for their newborn, many parents often overlook the importance of preparing for the significant impact on their relationship, including necessary transformation, lifestyle changes, and coping strategies essential for their journey into parenthood.

Research indicates that nearly 1 in 3 partners experience clinical marital distress within the first 18 months following the birth of a baby, with declines in love and increases in conflict reported.

Mindful Monday

Mindful Monday is a weekly workshop that invites participants to explore mindfulness through art while enhancing their self-care practices. This session aims to provide a deeper understanding of how to incorporate mindfulness into everyday life, especially for those engaged in parenthood workshops.

One of the most accurate explanations of mindfulness is being aware of the present moment without judgment. Learning and practicing mindfulness enhances focus and fosters a sense of calm, which are essential self-care practices.

Prenatal Relationship Support Programme

Me, We, Us

A relationship programme designed to support couples through one of the biggest transitions in life: the journey into parenthood. While much focus is placed on preparing for the baby, very little attention is given to the vital relationship that forms the foundation of family life. This programme was created to change that.
