Tonight marked Week 5 of Roots for Resilience! 🌱

Our focus tonight was all about "Fruit"—specifically, what we are currently growing within ourselves.

We talked about the work that goes into nurturing our personal growth and how we manage the "pests" that try to get in the way, like doubt worms and those people-pleasing pigeons. 🐛🐦

The monsoon at the start of the session kept us out of the garden, but it didn't stop the progress.

The group pivoted beautifully, working in pairs to reflect on what they’re cultivating right now.

It’s been such a joy to deliver these sessions. This group has truly become a powerhouse of mutual support. ✨

Had a brilliant session at the Connected Minds group at the Coach House tonight! 🧠

✨ We took a deep dive into the topic of anxiety—opening up about how it shows up in our own lives and the impact it has on our families.

It’s so powerful to realize you aren't walking that path alone.We also got stuck into some simple, practical self-help techniques for emotional regulation.

It’s amazing how a few small tools can make such a big difference in finding your calm when things feel a bit much. 🧘‍♂️🙏

So grateful for everyone’s openness and support tonight. See you at the next one on Tuesday 12th May at 6 pm

Laughter Club is back tomorrow night at 6pm at the Coach House in Rhyddings Park!

This week we’re giving our minds a little spring clean — shaking off the cobwebs, sweeping away the stress crumbs, and opening the windows with some playful laughter exercises.

It’s free to attend, and everyone is welcome.
Just bring a drink of water and wear something cool and comfy.

Laughter yoga is a brilliant way to de‑stress, lift your mood, and reset your internal weather — all in a friendly, supportive space.

Just back home from a lovely morning with the ladies from Carers Link. We enjoyed cake, a brew, a good natter and plenty of giggles — such a great way to end the week. ☕🍰💛

Week 4 of Roots for Resilience tonight — Leaves 🍃

We were blessed with a gorgeous spring evening in the Coach House Garden. The sun, the birdsong, the little hidden seating spots… it really is such a special place to work from.

Tonight we explored weathering emotional storms. We looked at the Drama Triangle and then shifted our focus to the Empowerment Triangle — a powerful reminder that we can choose different roles, different responses, and different ways of relating.

Before visiting our Mind Gardens, we reflected on what we’d like to lose (what might fall from our trees). The group shared things like: • Over‑carrying for others • Trying to solve other people’s problems at their own expense • Reacting quickly

Then we moved into what we’d like to grow — the qualities we want to develop and practise: • Being able to say “No” • Staying calm and in control • Asking for help • Becoming a Coach — setting boundaries

A truly lovely evening at the Coach House. 🌿✨

🌿 Roots for Resilience – Week 3 🌿

Tonight we explored our branches — the ways we problem solve, reframe challenges, and gently reset our state when life feels a little tangled.

We tried out alternate nostril breathing, a simple grounding technique that supports mindful, steady breathing. It was lovely to see everyone giving it a go.

Tonight — ideas flowing, stories shared, and a real sense of collective growth. Over these past three weeks, the shifts in confidence, insight, and connection have been incredible to witness.

Here’s to growing stronger, steadier branches together. 🌱

Just home from Week 2 of Roots for Resilience, and my heart is so full! 🌱✨

It is such a lovely group of people. We spent the evening chatting and sharing ideas, stories, and tips—we even treated ourselves to a fabulous yoga demonstration. 🧘‍♀️

Tonight’s reflection was really powerful. As we talked about what we’d done differently over the last week, a common theme kept popping up: making real time for self-care.

We also:
✨ Practised some grounding techniques to stay present.
✨ Mapped out our core states.
✨ Finished by revisiting our Mind Gardens. 🌿

I truly enjoyed every minute. A huge thank you to everyone who came and shared their energy with us tonight! ❤️

Tonight for Week 2 of Roots for Resilience, we’re moving up from the roots to the ground and the trunk! 🌱🌳

With today’s wild mix of rain, snow, hail, and sunshine, it’s the perfect backdrop for our session. We’ll be learning how to steady ourselves when things get stormy and how to manage our "trunk" (core state) to stay upright through it all. 🌬️❄️☀️

It’s a bit too crazy to head into the garden tonight, but we'll be cozy inside finding our balance. See you all soon!

🌼 LAUGHTER CLUB – EASTER & SPRING SPECIAL! 🌼

Last night's laughter club was full of Easter joy and springtime silliness. We hatched ourselves out of giant imaginary eggs, melted blissfully in the sunshine, bounded around like playful spring lambs, and giggled our way through the delights of the Easter laughter picnic basket. Such a gorgeous, uplifting session with a truly lovely group.

We’re now taking a little break for the Easter holidays to recharge our laughter batteries.
We’ll be back on Monday 13th April at 6pm for more fun, connection, and joyful nonsense.

We’ve also counted up our first‑quarter donations — £64.50!

This will be shared between Friends of Rhyddings Park and Papyrus UK.
A huge thank you to everyone who has donated and supported Laughter Club so far this year. It’s a joy to be part of this community.

Wishing you all a bright, happy Easter break. See you soon for more laughter and light 🌷💛
