MAY 18TH 2026
Back and refreshed from a little break and ready to launch my mindfulness support for breast cancer. More information on the website. As with all my session's, they are mostly online, offering you support emotionally to cope better with all aspects of your life.
April 2026
I have decided to train in mindfulness for breast cancer support after being diagnosed recently, myself.
This new arm to the business will start in May, and I hope to support, encourage and bring some calm and peace to others who feel they need someone to understand what they are going through. As with all of my sessions, I hope to bring confidence and resilience to those who need it.
Mindfulness and my mental health training has proved invaluable to me over the past months, and I am sure throughout the rest of the year. I know it can bring comfort to others.
Please fill out the contact form on this website or email me at thorpe24@icloud.com for more information.
Mindfulness 1:1 29th Nov
All set for this morning's online mindfulness session, the 4th for this client. Meetings can be ad-hoc or weekly if you feel you need that level of support. Although my office is quite, and I'm always alone, I like wearing earphones, so that if there are any outside noises, hopefully no knocks at the door, as I put a notice on the door, it blocks them all out from our conversation and keeps us on track and focused.
Helping 18th Nov
It is a wonderful feeling, hearing, and knowing that you've helped someone. So it is great to get some very positive feedback and hear a client say they want to see you next week too. Through practical mindfulness therapy, people begin to understand what they're reality actually is and not what they think it might be next week or next month or what it was years ago. I've been covering aspects of people's pasts, even simple things which knowling are holding them back. Realising you're not that person anymore and all kinds of things are said to us when we are younger, enables us to find some peace with it and live more in today with a much clearer and happier path forward.
It takes practice, lots of it, to keep telling yourself and understanding that you can change the way you think, feel, and respond, and by reminding yourself that in this moment in time... you're ok.
Bark 28th Oct 2025
I've re-activated my Bark.com this week. Seeking to engage with new clients in need of practical support. I joined originally for my design business about 8 years, and now focus solely on Mindfulness. Excited to listen to and assist people in improving their daily coping mechanisms.
A walk and talk in-person meeting.
I am pleased to meet up with a client this week for our second in-person meeting. I want to understand how they have progressed since our initial discussion, where they seemed very open to addressing obstacles and seeking happiness after a difficult year. The core discovery was accepting all that had happened in their lives and the realisation that, in order to move on, they needed to find peace and not wish for it all to be different.

IF YOU NEED HELP RIGHT NOW
In the meantime, if you need a quick fix, if it's all getting too much for you, consider getting outside and going for a walk. Take a few deep breaths before you head out, absorb the sounds around you, the freshness of the air, and the simple peace it brings, if only for a short time.
