I haven’t stopped supporting people!

Did you know I am a counsellor? It struck me when a family that have been attending classes with me for a number of years asked me if I was going to do something different now I’m not running classes - they had no idea that counselling was my main role - or even that I did it at all!

I currently work with teens and adults on a range of presentations including anxiety, depression, early experiences and life transitions … I am fascinated with the concept of identity and how this shifts and changes and is impacted by our environment and relationships. Being neurodivergent myself I attract many others who might identify as neurodivergent or who have felt ‘different’ and ‘othered’ in their lives. Reading that it probably won’t surprise you to learn that I’m an integrative counsellor - I am trained in more than one approach and take the time to get to know you and what it is you need from therapy rather than a ‘one-approach-fits-all’ view.

Good news … I have had a number of successful endings with clients lately meaning I have a few spaces open for new clients (online or in-person) … I also offer free initial appointments, after which I await you to get in touch if you’d like to arrange sessions so no unwanted calls/emails and absolutely no obligation at all!

So if you or someone you know (must be UK based) is struggling and/or curious about the idea of therapy then please do get in touch or follow me over at on Insta and Place for Space Counselling on here.

I look forward to hearing from you,
Rosy

I may have stopped leading classes … but the classes will continue on for your young people!! 🙌

Thrilled that Emily is able to offer classes for the same times and age ranges so you can all continue to see your young people find calm and connection together! 🥰

General bookings are now open so don’t miss out!!

Red Sky Yoga

We welcome the wrigglers, the chatterboxes and the timid-tinies - no judgement here! ALL ARE WELCOME! It’s not all about sitting still and being quiet but we also want to show our young people that they CAN have moments of stillness and how to NOTICE their emotions by having fun breathing, connecting, moving, creating and being in the FLOW!

Emily will be leading our Saturday morning Red Sky Yoga Kidz (9.30am) and Red Sky Yoga PreTeens (11am) at the Sale Moor studio from November 🧡

Bookings are now open!

Phew that was an emotional morning of sessions! Goodbyes are never easy so we made sure to take the time to process our thoughts and feelings around endings and transitions in what was the last session for each group. We recapped lots of lovely tools and techniques we have learnt. Everything that they took away with them today was lovingly gathered together to support them - younger ones with releasing the energy of different emotions and then slowing down using the breath in many different ways - and the older ones with stepping away from thoughts and being able to check in on their emotions with self-acceptance and compassion using their senses to draw their state of being in to the here and now.

Listening to our sharing circle at the end of todays sessions I wasn’t sure what to expect and was blown away by what the groups have meant for each person who has attended - regardless of how long or short a time they have been coming. Key themes of calm, connection, and a safe space kept cropping up so I couldn’t be more proud as those have always been my key aims for both groups. Over the years the groups have laughed together (sometimes until we cried or couldn’t breathe!), cried together, supported and advised one another and held one another in love and compassion … we’ve also done some mindfulness along the way too! 😉 The groups highlight how the term yoga encompasses so much more than the physical - it highlights and transforms how we see the world and others in it as well as how we see ourselves.

I’ve always said that I felt my job as a yoga teacher was to ignite a spark within young people so that they associate the words yoga and mindfulness with warmth and joy, even if they never remember anything of what we did together, so that when they feel rubbish or face tough times in the future they fondly remember that spark and it provides comfort and maybe even encourages them to continue on with their own practices and explorations. With that in mind, the amazing Sophie over at Red Sky Yoga is busy working away to create something new for them so keep your eyes peeled!

Thank you for the cards & gifts - I was overwhelmed by your generosity - it took 2 (tearful) trips to my car (which turned into a florist)!

Now that all the amazing young people who currently attend my classes are aware, it is with great sadness that I announce that I will be hitting pause on Mindful Kidz and Mindful Preteens classes … our last sessions will be on Saturday 18th October 🥹

Whilst I absolutely love running sessions, it’s time to practice what I preach and bring a little more time and balance back to my own self care and to my family life.

What a journey it’s been though!!! 7 years ago I felt the need to create some form of wellbeing session for young people in the local area and, together with the support of the wonderful Sophie at Red Sky Yoga(who has been so much more than just someone I hire a space from!!!) and everyone who has ever attended a Kidz, Preteens or family session with me, it’s evolved in to the magical space for young people that they tell me it is today! I am so proud of the mini community that each group is and of the amazing young people who are, and have been, part of them - I will miss them all greatly!

I’d like to say a huge(!!!!) and very heartfelt thank you to every single family who has ever booked, attended, promoted and loved any of our sessions - my little seedling of an idea would never have come to fruition without you … I will forever be grateful!

Your young people are all so wonderfully unique and so so special - our time together will always have a special place in my heart. 💜

In other news - next weekend we will be focussing on Loving Kindness and we welcome back any of our past group members who wish to join us one last time ( https://bookwhen.com/placeforspace ) to celebrate our time together. The final week will be closed sessions to ensure the current group have a chance to ‘end’ together.

Peace and love always, Rosy xx

Summer means no classes … but did you know that I am also a Counsellor??

Due to a number of hardworking clients having successful endings over the last month, I currently have availability for new clients.

So if you think I may be of potential use to you or someone you know then you/they can check out Place for Space Counselling and/or my professional body directory link below for more information about me and how I work (feel free to forward on to anyone it may be of interest to).

I offer free initial appointments so I can find out more about what’s going on for you or what you may be looking for and also you can get a feel for me and whether I might be a good fit for you.

You can message me directly through my page or send an enquiry via the directory with any questions or to arrange an appointment … absolutely no obligation at any time as I truly believe that it has to feel like it could be a good match.
Thanks,
Rosy

“I’m bored!”

I’ve already heard this before Mindful Kidz** started this morning … an instant reminder of how long summer holidays can feel!

Whilst there is nothing wrong with boredom (as this leads to imagination and new ideas), we spent time this morning easing our minds and bodies with summer breathwork, finding and relaxing in our calm place in our minds and then creating our own Summer Calm Kits* filled with ready to go mini mindfulness ideas for every occasion …

Perfect for creating moments of connection and calm when we may be feeling otherwise disregulated, bored, hyperactive etc …

Each activity in our Summer Calm Kit* takes a few moments, can be done absolutely anywhere, alone or as a family and completely free!

You’re welcome!!

* Want me to send you the full kist so you can cut them out and create your own Summer Calm Kit? Drop me a message with your email address on and I’ll ping it over to you

** Mindful Kidz and Mindful Preteens will be back in September … maybe even with the introduction of Mindful Teens!! Drop me a message to be the first to receive full information once the new dates are available to book.
