Christmas is going to be a bit different this year. 2020 has been a rollercoster for many, including me! 

I usually take a break from teaching over the holidays, but I thought what can I do to help what might be a tricky time for many?

I signed up to SAMH mental health charter last year, commiting to make my classes more inclusive, support mental health and do what I could to support my local community. So I thought with many of us adapting to technology and using Zoom I could offer a free mindfulness course over the 12 days of Christmas. Just 20 mins a day to connect with yourself and with others, a little check in with like minded folk. You can come to all of the sessions, or just drop in when you remember. I'll also save the recordings for later. 

I'll be offering simple breathing, mindfulness and meditation techniques that you can do anywhere without the need of any special equipment. Just a phone or tablet and the free Zoom app. All easily bookable on my website.

So I thought, why not support SAMH at the same time! If you can donate, please too, if not there is no obligation at all. Coming along and showing your support for SAMH and your own mental health is a show of support for the charity just in itself. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
