SUMMARY:End of Year Celebration Event
DESCRIPTION:At the end of the academic year we run a celebration event for all students\, the head of the college reflects on the year gone by and we hear from one of our students or newly trained tutors about their time at ORC over the last 12 months. Students can take part in a creative activity or just chat and connect with fellow students. It is more informal than other courses and the aim is to build on a sense of connection within our ORC community. This event is run on a bigger scale than our usual End of Term Wellbeing events but students still need to book a place in the usual way as numbers are limited.

SUMMARY:Managing Self Doubt (Part 1 In Person )
DESCRIPTION:This 2 part course is for anyone keen to learn more about self-doubt and how to live with it better. Self doubt feeds anxiety in a continuous cycle and can have a huge impact on our mental health and wellbeing. Together we explore what it is\, the impacts it can have\, and some things we can do to manage it. There is a practical emphasis and we hope that students will leave feeling more able to manage their own self-doubt\, and/or to better support others who experience it.

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)

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.
