And grow.....

"Vulnerability is our capacity to be wounded. Vulnerability is a necessity for growth and without vulnerability there is no growth."

- Dr. Gabor Maté

Hello Fellow Human Being,

Are you tired of saying YES when your body screams NO? 🛑

When we say "yes" but mean "no," we abandon ourselves to maintain connection with others. We tell ourselves "it's not that bad," but the truth is, resentment is a slow poison.

As Dr. Gabor Maté powerfully reminds us:

"If you face the choice between feeling guilt and resentment, choose the guilt every time."

Join Ruth Clarke & Pauline Stiles (both trauma-informed Compassionate Inquiry Practitioners) for a FREE 90-minute somatic workshop to support you in finding your true, sovereign "No".

In this safe, confidential space, you will:
✨ Discover why people-pleasing is actually a clever survival strategy.
✨ Understand the power of healthy anger.
✨ Explore where your boundaries currently sit using somatic movement and creative mapping.
✨ Begin the journey of moving from automatic compliance to choosing YOU.

🗓 Date: TUESDAY 10th March
⏰ Time: 6.30pm - 8pm
📍 Where: Online via Zoom

📝 Preparation: Please have your journals, coloured pens, and paper ready.

This free workshop is a standalone experience and also serves as the perfect introduction to our 4-week deep dive COURSE starting Tuesday 17th March.

Through our own journeys with chronic pain and recovery, we are committed to supporting you in finding your voice. We don't view people-pleasing as a flaw to be fixed, but as a childhood strategy that deserves compassion.

We would love for you to join us.
Ruth & Pauline

When things feel heavy, what is one small thing you do to invite a bit of play or a laugh back into your day?

I’ve learned that I don't always have to be "on" or in "fix it" mode. Letting myself laugh, with good friends is my way of releasing the pressure valve.

Thank you buddie Stuart Whan
Still makes me smile 😀

What 's one act of kindness you can offer today, even if its to yourself ?

"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around."
Leo Buscaglia

This video from Capsle Stories ( on IG) is a great reminder that little acts of kindness can go a long way. A kind gesture of welcoming and sha...

Do you find that parenting and even step-parenting (in my personal experience) is like looking into a mirror of our own past?

You get triggered, you react to something and wonder why in this moment I have such a strong urge to control what my child is doing?

By using these reactions to find and healing within yourself, so that you can parent much from presence rather than past pain and if you are coming from past pain be consciouly aware.

I hope that we will not pass on our own hurts and pains to the future generation.

Every "no" to something that drains me saves fuel for the things I truly value.

If I say yes to everyone else, I’m usually saying no to myself. By practicing my "no," I’m making sure that when I say "YES," I actually mean it with my whole heart.

Body Check-in: How does it feel in your body when you imagine saying a firm, kind "no" to something you don't want to do?

It's always rewarding to reflect back on the feedback I have received over the months especially when I slip back into the old patterns & believes of 'I'm not good enough - I need to do more get another qualification ... more this, more that....'
