Do you adopt healthy or unhealthy coping strategies...?
The way in which we cope with lockdown uncertainty, adversity, or just the queue at the supermarket, comes down to our assessment of what’s in our control.

It's NOT your fault!
Your brain is a very beautiful thing, it’s an unbelievably incredibly sophisticated computer right on top of your shoulders! And while some aspects of it are the very thing that distinguishes us from other mammals – for example we have will-power, memory, int...

our vision is to transform you from stuck and stressed to calm, confident and connected
we help people and teams transform from being stressed and disconnected to calm, deliberate and productive through resilience and mindfulness workshops and coaching.
what we do is evocative because it expands your mind to gain awareness on how you're perceiving and therefore experiencing your reality – that’s illuminating the perceptions, feelings and values that sit lurking under the surface of your behaviours and choices. That awareness gives you control, of your own life!
congratulations, once you embrace that control, you start 'deliberate thinking', which means deliberate living!
