Why is it SO hard for therapists to offer the same kindness to ourselves that we give generously to our clients? We’re in service to family, to our children, to our clients and all under time pressure to get stuff done! But how can we be also in service to ourselves?

Kindness for Therapists is a retreat day for therapists, yoga teachers, facilitators, healers, doulas, bodyworkers, counsellors and coaches to receive nourishment and explore self-care that will effortlessly slip into your life and help you to stay topped up. Here’s what previous participants said about it.

It’s an experiential day including a womb blessing and exploration for you to access your inner wisdom. Both guiding you to be kinder to yourself and giving you clarity on how to manage your energy.

Kate and Leora live in the real world with messy lives, and we know how hard it is to create space for self-kindness. This day is definitely not about telling you what to do or adding to your to-do list! Instead, you’re offered a re-set button, by creating a safe, cozy place where you can dive into your abundant inner wisdom, that is just waiting to be heard.

“Doesn’t every living being deserve kindness? Why should you be an exception?”  –  Sjanie Hugo-Wurlitzer

The retreat is open to anyone with a menstural cycle (or finding their menstrual cycle a challenge) to post-menopause, who works as a therapist, coach, teacher, healer or workshop leader, and is curious about how they can be kinder to themself. If you’re not sure if the retreat would be useful for you, get in touch and ask us more.

“An insightful day, full of healthy connection and yummy nourishment” 

– Pauline Sweeny

What you will receive

Womb blessing
A bit like a feminine Reiki, this deliciously gentle healing nourishes your creative, feminine centre. It brings a reverence and grace to the exploration of what it is to be authentic and well-resourced.

Womb Love
This is a unique combination of embodied movement inspired by Womb Yoga, self-care belly massage and guided visualisation. It combines the physical benefits of increased circulation, release and lymph flow to your womb and belly, with a deep connection to your innate wisdom by embodied listening. At Kindness for Therapists we’ll be using it to explore what is most needed in your working life AND what holds you back. As a side benefit, you’re also learning the ultimate in daily self-care!

Seasonal experiences
The afternoon is dedicated to two seasonal explorations we’ve crafted especially for therapists. These practices will allow you to understand what your strengths and challenges are in your working life at different times in your menstrual and life cycle, getting into the details of how you can work to your own strengths and accessing clarity to truly allow kindness into your working lives. We’ve noticed that rather like Family Constellations, just doing this process creates energy shifts in your life without even trying!

Spaciousness
At each stage of the day, there will be plenty of time to share as much or as little as is comfortable for you. The digestion and processing of new information is important when allowing change to happen, so we build in spaciousness to allow this to happen; particularly precious when we have so little of it in our daily lives.

Grounding 
To complete the day we’ll be supporting you in finding your way to allow these changes to happen. Everyone does this differently so we have a range of ideas for you to adopt.
