This is a brilliant course! I completed it earlier in the year when it was opened up to just Guild Therapists and it really helped me through a transitional period. Just a small change like helping me sleep better had a big impact. I am sure I mentioned to a few clients that it would be opened up outside the Guild, so here it is… I can highly recommend it ☺️
Earlier in the year I completed the rigorous training with the British School of Meditation to become an accredited Meditation Teacher.
I will soon be offering these classes to the general public via Zoom as weekly live lessons, so whether or not you are a dog or animal owner, someone looking to manage stress and anxiety, manage health issues, or whether you have always wanted to explore meditation with an experienced teacher but haven't known where to start, I can show you how. I guarantee you meditation success within the very first lesson so come and learn with me and feel the changes in your day to day life....

On another note, to answer the most common question heres some info below.......
Q: What's this got to with your business of canine massage training?
💫 As part of my own wellness and self care I began meditating 10 years ago.As a flat out business owner, therapist and teacher I needed something to bring me back to me.
🌟 I bring aspects of it into my course as I teach students the art of self regulation which is a key skill for working with dogs. Knowing how to change your physiology for working with dogs is a key aspect of success and something i had to learn the hard way as its just not taught. I teach this to all my students.
☀️ From there, I also teach how to have a therapeutic 'conversation' with a dog in pain so that therapy can be provided in a mindful and respectful way which leads to better results and a more compassionate, understanding experience for dog and owner. This is done via physical, mental and emotional means of both dog and therapist.
🌙 In my classroom I often talk through different styles of meditation or mindfullness to enhance the lesson, improve empathy and understanding and so the student can enter into therapy with the right frame of mind and physiological self understanding and awareness needed for close up hands on work with dogs that last for often around 45-50 minutes. With my method you can't just poke and prod and 'do' a technique and hope for the best which is what has made it so successful
So you see meditation, which is misunderstood, is at the very core of what I do. It is the cornerstone.
a few weeks ago i completed training with 45 of my meditation students over 3 groups and they LOVED it! will you be next?
If you want to learn with me, get the scientific backing and research behind meditation and bust some myths around meditation then I look forward to teaching you
Best of wishes
