Yoga and CBT with Juliet Green and Gill Garratt

 
Juliet Green   Gill Garratt
     
 
  The week is not prescriptive and set in stone but provides a framework from which you can choose the activities and sessions which fit best each day. The opportunities for walking, swimming, cycling and yoga will be offered for individuals to make their own choices and maximise the integration and development of heart, body and spirit.  
     
 

Juliet Green brings her sensitive and heart-felt approach to yoga to you each morning to help prepare you for meditation and the practices that Gill will teach. Working into silence and stillness is the aim, but also to cast off the limitations of the body brought about by life stresses.

Respect for and nurturing of the body are important for Juliet and as she says: we are born with the body to suit this life, it is a blessing. Juliet also brings to you healing skills from Kinesiology to help you live with a comfortable body.

  Gill Garratt is a Psychotherapist who likes to live and work in a holistic way. Heart, body and spirit awareness combine to give a fabulous holiday experience which includes sharing of resources of everyone to give a caring and fun environment nurturing respect and personal development.

Gill's passions are CBT therapy, an integration of philosophy, science and cognitive awareness, walking, cycling, dance and being at one in the beautiful Greek climate and culture, birthplace of civilisation. The week will include opportunities to consider what CBT is about, practical workshops, and time to reflect on what is important to the individual and how to look towards the future and integrate positive psychology. She will include Mindfulness meditative experiences.

     
 
  The philosophy of Carl Rogers emphasised that the person who knows what is best for you is yourself – trust in the process.
We aim to be alongside you as facilitators in this process in a genuine and empathic way.
