Holding for Healing Cuddle Workshop -Finding Your Flow in Embrace

Chris Harris and Helen Thatcher offer this wonderful and unique workshop to allow you to relax, let go and receive the nourishing benefits of being held. Our main motivation for offering this workshop is to share the mutual benefits of being held for an extend period of time by another person. We emphasise safety, self-responsibility in a non-sexual and fully clothed environment. Helen has a strong background in supporting others to feel valued and appreciated in life using the tools of dance, movement, meditation, physical touch and hugs through her work as a Vital Development facilitator. Chris has worked for many years in the counselling and therapeutic environments, in particular holding safe spaces for those wishing to make changes in their lives. Together they are now offering a professional one-to-one cuddling therapy called Holding for Healing. In it's essence this is a technique that nurtures on all levels. This workshop is an opportunity for you to have a flavour of their work in a group setting. Hugs, cuddles and human touch have a wonderful impact on our physical system. When we are engaged in touch, our brains produce more serotonin and oxytocin. Both of these chemicals make us calm and happy and contribute to an overall sense of well-being and relaxation that is pleasurable and healthy. Investment £30 Limited to 16 participants.
