We have gained funding from the Safe Deposits Scotland Community Fund to hold a series of FREE Wellbeing Sessions on Friday mornings.

Our Friday Morning Wellbeing session this week will be "An Introduction to ACT (in six easy steps)", held by Elspeth from Pause to Be.

Come and discover six fun ACT skills which can help you to manage stress and life challenges more effectively, as well as finding more meaning and purpose in your everyday life.

ACT is a mindfulness-based training which we can learn in six fun practical exercises.

In this workshop, you’ll be guided through the six steps of:

• Being present

• Acceptance (willingness)

• Taking a step back

• Unhooking from thoughts

• Discovering meaning

• Taking meaningful action

All you’ll need for this workshop is yourself and a notebook and pen. .

This session is being held on Friday 30th August from 10-11.30am. The session will be an hour, followed by the chance to stay for a cuppa, biscuit and a chat. Click here to book in.
