SUMMARY:Mindful Photography
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop students have the opportunity to try out some mindful photography and share their responses. Mindful photography uses our own eyes and a camera lens (be it a smartphone or a camera) to help ground us in the present moment by looking more closely at the world around us. It encourages us to look non judgmentally\, and can help change our perspective on ourselves and our environment by harnessing gratitude\, self-compassion and a sense of awe and wonder.

SUMMARY:Self Compassion Skills (Part 4)
DESCRIPTION:A Four Part In Person Course. Compassion for ourselves and others can be hard to maintain when faced with hardship and mental health difficulties. In this course\, we will explore what compassion means\, how compassion supports wellbeing  and what can get in the way.  We will work on practical skills such as grounding\, breathing exercises\, and compassionate voice and imagery. Some sessions will also have a therapy dog present. PLEASE NOTE: This is a newly developed course in collaboration with the University of Oxford and has a RESEARCH COMPONENT consisting of questionnaires at the start and end of each session. The research explores whether the course is effective and whether the presence of a THERAPY DOG might impact this. The therapy dog will be randomly allocated to attend either the first three sessions for one group or only the fourth session for the other group. Anyone who signs up to the course will be invited to take part in the research\, and you will receive a full information sheet when signing up. You can attend this course EITHER morning or afternoon – please let us know if you have a preference.
