Joyworks loves supporting vulnerable groups who deserve to be seen, valued and celebrated.

A Joyworks project is a wonderful way to give your client group practical tools and techniques for happier days ahead, all while having enormous fun.

Because when we have fun while learning… guess what? It sticks!

Here’s what our wonderful courageous parents from Trauma Informed Parenting said last week in our Finding Joy Again through self-compassion programme.

Calling all our wonderful manifestors !

This one is for you!

Joy is an inside job and this man teaches it so it sticks✨💫⭐️

Neville Goddard was a 20th-century mystic and teacher whose work influenced modern manifestation thinking long before it became trendy.

Now we would call it experiential, grounded neuroscience-informed inner work!

His core message?

You do not attract what you want.
You express what you are conscious of being.

In other words… your inner state shapes your outer world.

Come join us and
• Explore how assumptions harden into fact
• Understand why feeling is the secret
• Learn why the subconscious responds to emotion, not logic
• Practise emotional rehearsal to build new neural pathways
• Use fun , laughter and reflection to embody the learning for better days.

Booking link below and hear about Joyworks 18year anniversary offer on the call too! ⭐️💜

Always grand to be invited back and this time to Epilepsy Connections for their second staff wellness event!

They chose a Joyworks signature experience for a teambuilding event a few years ago today they’ll be getting creative to feel better with the Joyworks Creativity experience previously chosen for the Get Better Together Wellbeing day.

They will reconnect as a team, sparking fresh thinking and give themselves well deserved space to recharge.

Epilepsy Connections does exceptional work supporting people living with epilepsy, along with their families and carers, across Scotland.

Giving practical advice and advocacy to one to one support and community wellbeing services which Joyworks was part of for nine years thanks to the Big Lottery Funding for the “Joyworks for Confidence” programme.

So, I’ve witnessed first hand the life-changing impact of their service.

They reduce isolation and ensure people feel informed, empowered and understood.

It’s a real privilege to stand alongside a team that makes such a difference every single day and to mark this exciting new chapter with the newly secured funding news with creativity, connection and a whole lot of joy!
Very good very good YEH!

👏👏👏👏

We’ve written to the UK government about our concerns with AI and mental health.

We think AI platforms and mental health services can work safely together, but we need to take steps to get there. We need to make mental health support quicker and easier to access so people are not needing to fill the gap with AI tools in times of need.

There is an urgent need for stronger safeguards, and shared accountability.

A little reminder that the sun is always there - even if you don’t see it!

The Laughing Heart

your life is your life
don't let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on the watch. there are ways out.
there is light somewhere.
it may not be much light but it beats the darkness.
be on the watch.
the gods will offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
you can't beat death
but you can beat death in life, sometimes.
And the more often you learn to do it, the more light there will be.
your life is your life. know it while you have it. you are marvellous the gods wait to delight in you.

By Charles Bukowski

Have a fantastic week dear ones Much love Sharon xx❤️

How did you feel most of last week?

Do you have a plan or science backed techniques or practices that are going to make this week any different?

Let us shift your energy and mood on our joy call EVERY week so you have better weeks, months and years.

Because if nothing changes, nothing changes.

So very lovely to be with everyone again with ‘Being our Own Bestie’ second session this morning as part of Finding our Joy Again Through Self-compassion .

We reflected on

💜 the spiral that happens when we aren’t mindful with our suffering
💜How our first 17 seconds in the morning impacts our day and what works best for us to welcome in the good
💜Embracing our imperfections to be a better friend to ourselves
💜Neurocience backed tools for pattern interrupt those pesky unkind thoughts
💜And so much more all underscored with fabulous music soundtrack of course & we shared our joy and fun with laughter dance and movement!

If you are a parent or carer that is struggling at the moment - do join the Trauma Informed Parenting Group to be able to join these fully funded sessions .

We’d so love to welcome you in. All sessions are standalone and you can stay as long or as short a time as you want.

Next week :Boundaries and Belonging Saturday 28th February 10-11.30 pm GMT

Yesterday I had the immense joy of returning to SSE for the sixth time !

This time to deliver “Thirty Minutes to Calm” for the Occupational Health and Wellbeing team!

When Health leads only meet in person every few months to be invited to bring everyone closer, help them feel nurtured and celebrated and allow them to fill their own joy cup up was very special.

The energy in the room was brilliant , with a grand mix of new and not so new staff joining in fun and neuroscience backed practical techniques they can return to in the middle of a demanding day.They are holding it together for everyone else after all.

Many high performers quietly forget to give themselves the time but at SSE they truly care!

For managers who support everyone else feel regulated and connected, everything flows better.

If your team comes together occasionally and you want that time to genuinely count, book Joyworks thirty minutes to calm - or if schedule doesn’t allow - 15 or 20 minutes.

Music to my ears to hear, “It was a great session as always”.

Wishing you all a beautiful love in or romancing day !

We had a wonderful start in our fully funded by TIP Finding Joy Again through Self-compassion with our Trauma Informed Parenting Family - you were all amazing!

Love being part of this community so much , thanks again Suzanne!

Can’t wait for next week !
Had to have Paolo’s lovely roses in screen.

This is one of my favourite poems if you are on your self-love journey.

Love after Love
Derek Walcott
The time will come
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other’s welcome,
and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread, Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.

Be kind to yourself moment by moment

Much love Sharon ###
