Relaxation for better sleep, pain releif and a happier life

Did you know that the process involved in getting stressed is the same as the ones we use to relax?  If you find one easy then the other is easy too, it is just a matter of understanding how to do it.

De-Stress - the Body~Mind Coaching way


This workshop is for you if:
*You get stressed easily, yet find relaxing difficult.
*You would you like to ease back tension without the need for a massage.
* You find it difficult getting to sleep.
* Your neck and shoulders are tight and /or get headaches
* You want to know easy ways to relax properly especially if your idea of relaxing is watching TV.


There will be no sitting cross legged, meditating or chanting as these are not suitable everywhere and anywhere. The simple tricks and tools you will learn will help you in your everyday life.


Be warned, this could change you life!
Knowing how to reduce pain levels,  how to get a better quality sleep, how to go about daily life chores with less effort means you will have more energy.
Who knows what you could do with it!

5 habits to help or hinder you!

 I have just read an article about the 5 habits that cause depression 

1) Waiting for pity from others and feel sorry for yourself 
2)The habit of doing unpleasant things 
3)The habit of living in the past
4) The habit to compare yourself with others 
5) The habit to consider yourself worse than others

You can replace them with the 5 good habits for well-being: 

1) Cut down on coffee, tea, alcohol, chocolate and smoking as they suppress what you are really feeling and means you don't tackle the real issues that are causing  problems.
2) Eat less carbohydrates (white processed foods), have a min 12 gr protein per meal lots of veg and nothing other than water between meals.
3) Take some form of exercise every day-15min bike ride to work or a brisk walk at lunch time walk up the stairs every time rather than take an elevator will do.
4) Once a week have 90min just for yourself -a soak in the bath, read a book, go to a dance, yoga or pilates class, take time to meditate or fully relax (for help with this you could listen to my relaxation CD.
5) Treat yourself as if you were your best friend. Listen to what you would say to yourself if you were talking to your best friend about your situation.

All this will help you avoid the highs and lows of sugar peaks and help you get much better sleep, which is absolutely essential for well-being.

If you want more help, then come along to one of my talk demo's on EMDR, attend my relaxation workshop or book in for a 30 min free taster session, to find out how I could help you.
