My Mindful Self

My Mindful Self is all about being your authentic self. Many of us are masking our true identity to 'fit in' but in doing so we lose our true essence. The events below are ways in which we can slow down, be present and find our authentic self.

Empowerment

'I am both nature and spirit but so often I hide this. How can you truly be your authentic self? What can you bring to light rather than hide below?

A multi-sensory deep dive into healing, uplifting, magical power being held by Mother Gaia and like-minded women.

You are welcomed into a space that is all accepting, free from judgement and you will be encouraged to let go of that which is holding you back.

Release - Receive - Breathe

Emerge - from your experience with renewed energy and gratitude

Find your true essence.

Session length: 2 hours

Location: in the New Forest

Cost: £55

Empowerment - Louise

Amy was warm, attentive and a knowledgeable facilitator. The activities were well organised and flowed well throughout the session. Amy sounded a small chime to signal the end of each activity, gently indicating it time to regroup. Thank you Amy, I very much enjoyed the experience.

Empowerment - Sarah

It was really eye-opening how disconnected from the day-to-day you can get when you go through an activity/experience like this and truly get in touch with nature and the quiet calm in the forest. The small group setting, together with the guided walk through for the experience helped step through the experience and increase awareness of yourself and the surroundings. The New Forest is a great setting for this type of experience, and I left feeling very relaxed and in tune with myself.

Forest Bathing

Forest Bathing - Marion

I joined Amy and a small group of others for a Forest Bathing morning. Amy had clearly put a lot of thought and time into preparing for it and it had a positive impact on me. I thoroughly enjoyed it and came away feeling wonderful.

Forest Bathing - Anon

You don't realise how full on life is sometimes and how pent up you are. I wasn't sure what to expect but I really enjoyed it. I grew up in the forest and have spent a lot of time going for walks etc but never taken the time just to step back and enjoy it, listen to the different sounds and it makes such a difference. I definitely feel more relaxed. It is good to take time away from tech and not constantly checking what the time is. It's so nice to be allowed to have time just to concentrate on nothing but nature.

Forest Bathing - Anon

I absolutely loved it! Very relaxed, connected to nature and detached from work/life.

Nature & Creativity for Wellbeing - Anonymous

I feel these sessions have helped me relax, learn to understand different aspects of nature, observe and enjoy our surroundings and let me be... just me.

Nature & Creativity for Wellbeing - Anonymous

Although I am anxious, I felt motivated and interested in each session to 'do something'. Attending is the highlight of my week!

Nature & Creativity for Wellbeing - Anonymous

I am very grateful for their love and care, for holding such a beautiful space and for guiding us under the trees with passion, creativity and wonder.

Nature & Creativity for Wellbeing - Anonymous

I found the whole course uplifting and really made me appreciate nature. I started at a wellbeing marker of 5 and ended with a big 10

Forest Bathing 1:1

Whilst taking part in a group forest bathing session is good, sometimes having 1:1 sessions is better suited.

Forest bathing 1:1 enables you to deepen your connection to nature, as often we will return back to a familiar site. At the same time, it enables you to find yourself.

Nature is a great teacher if we give the chance to listen. It can help you work through issues, provide inspiration and enable you to slow down and be present with self.

We recommend 4-6 sessions.

Sessions are: 1-1.5 hours at a time

Sessions take place within the Waterside or New Forest.

£88 for 4 sessions or £111 for 6 sessions.

Forest Bathing 1:1 - Emma

Having done 6 sessions, I would happily do more. Each session had the underlaying theme of nature, but layered on top of that was a very different session each week and I honestly couldn't pick a favourite, I enjoyed them all so much!

Here are some words that spring to mind to describe my forest bathing experience: an escape, calm, safe, loving, explorative, spiritual. An opportunity to tap into nature and spirituality. A break, meditative, therapeutic. An opportunity to breathe. Grounding, beautiful, self care, self love.

You are the Oracle - Sarah

I had a card reading with Amy last week, and I was really impressed with it. Amy took her time to interpret the cards in a sensitive and meaningful way. The reading was really accurate and I highly recommend her..

You are the Oracle - Sally

Amy gave me a spot on card reading over Zoom. Her interpretation of the cards related to the issues I had going on in my life at the time. I would recommend her for a reading.
