It's International Stress Awareness Week - stress can be a challenging part of life but there are many ways we can manage.

In the Learn Online section of our website https://ow.ly/yL5G50Xmq6M, we have many resources that can support with stress including a section on Bitesize Skills. This offers videos and worksheets on a variety of short skills and strategies that can really help us identify and relieve the impact of stress on our minds and bodies.

At the REC we have courses and online resources that can help with this:

🍵If you're new to mindfulness our single session Introducing Mindfulness course could be a good place to start - running this term in Wimborne on Thursday, 23 October.

🚶‍♂️Over 4 sessions our Mindful Living course gives lots of opportunities to understand what it means to be mindful. Each session builds on the skills and ideas of the last and by practising together we find what's supportive with a spirit of curiosity and kindness. This term, the course will be held in Shaftesbury and begins on Tuesday, 4 November.

💻If you'd rather give mindfulness a try in your own home, we have a number of mindfulness practices and podcasts on Learn Online section of our website https://ow.ly/zkxt50XftxC.
