Hello and welcome ππΌ
An invitation to take time and space to explore what it means to have sweet mental health. As a registered integrative counsellor, it is important you always explore this work in a safe, non-judgemental and professional space.
A guided practice helping you to relax in a grounding experience through mindfulness. As a Mindfulness Now teacher it is important to acknowledge that a beginning in starting to breath deeply and fully can be hard for some.
This 5 minute relaxation practice helps to ground the eyes at the start of a busy day, or as you become ready for sleep. Our sensory selves can be very busy sometimes and this type of connection with the self aids me to start my day, or unwind from a hectic day of schedules and balancing self care.

Welcome to this introduction to the understanding I now have as a Hatha Yoga teacher. There are explanations around yoga for men, and in a contemplative practice in a class. What type of class would work for your lifestyle? What about looking for a qualified teacher to support your journey?
The shared yogic philosophy is based around the seven main chakras, or nadis which is the connection with self, earth and the cosmos:
- CROWN - Cosmic consciousness, understanding and enlightenment
- THIRD EYE - Clairvoyance, intuition and psychic senses
- THROAT - Communication, creativity and healing
- HEART - Love, hope and compassion
- NAVAL - Energy, vitality and desire + power
- SACRAL - Emotions, sexuality and intimacy
- ROOT - Survival instinct, security and grounding

Have you ever broken down the 24hrs in each day? A helpful technique to explore what your time and space for balance. When did you ask yourself about how much time and space you have for self-care?
Work and sleep cycle can be hard in a family and professional relationship. "Relating to a ship like journey," allows us to pay attention to the ups and downs to the waves of relationships in life.
Self-compassion can be broken down to the identity of the self. What does your sense of self feel like? This is a good beginning. What does it mean to talk from the 'I' perspective? Like, "Am I self-compassionate?" Is today a difficult, or good day?
At Sweet Mental Health asks clients to look at their patterns in the smallest amount of awareness. And, it takes time. Lots and lots of time and forgiveness. Just as I had to do after nearly two decades as a high speed train driver when I ignored the mind and body.
The personal mantra for this practice is, "One moment, one breath and one movement."
The tools in this episode are:
- Interview more than one counsellor, if you are going to use a qualified professional person
- Abraham Maslow is a good theorist from his era. 'The Hierarchy of Needs' is helpful to focus on awareness. Visit the blog here
- What is happening in your cultural, society and environment? Where are you?

This first episode explores a personal mantra: "breath is the doctor within us all; and sleep is the hospital within us to."
As an asthma suffering the breath has been difficult and a superpower. I use a guided breathing exercise to become grounded to practice a short daily exercise which helped. It has really helped with academic schedules and family life.
I also tell you how shift work got the way of my sweet mental health as well. There are also some tips and hints to explore supportive measures to health and wellbeing. An example comes from nutritional, fluid and digital stimulus intake to bring balance ready for sleep.
