From Nervous Wreck to Peaceful Nights

Can't sleepWhen I first came to counselling, I was a nervous wreck. I hadn’t slept in months. My family was ready to excommunicate me. I looked pasty and my complexion was horrible. I felt awful. My doctor referred me to Bev for help.

Bev took two approaches. One was what was going on in my life that could be upsetting me…that was so very helpful!

Then she introduced me to very practical strategies I could do to improve my sleep. I love the cold cloth, and the belly breathing and stretches. She had me do some weird stretches that actually worked!

I would encourage everyone to take action to improve their sleep routines. It really helped me. I feel like a different person now. Thank you Bev!

Mastery Practice Tool

Balance Exercise

We are all in need of ensuring there is balance inside of us. Our minds, emotions, and bodies need balance in order to thrive.

The gift in all of this is that we have the capacity and the skills to do it. Sports, music, an exercise program, meditation, qigong, dance, art... all of our passions bring in a balance to our systems. We want to team up our passions with our intention for balance, and ensure that there is time in our lives for us to play with our passions. This means taking action. It is important for all of us to move beyond our good intentions, and take action to look after ourselves. Balance is one of the key action steps that is needed. Our passions take us into a different part of ourselves, and it is like having a wonderful holiday. It builds our vitality.

Testimonial

Our ability, as parents, to support our children to thrive in stressful situations is becoming more and more important. Children need very specific tools in their self regulation 'tool kits' that they can draw upon to support their success, and trusted adults to coach them in their use. But what are these tools and how to we teach them effectively to our kids?

Thankfully, there is Beverley Pugh! Bev takes a curious and calm approach to supporting children and parents with this journey. She is passionately invested in teaching parents and children ways to reduce anxiety and approach life positively and confidently. Bev is a master of her craft - she draws on years of her own experience as a parent and counsellor to work effectively and respectfully with children and their parents. I have thoroughly enjoyed Bev's recent workshops for parents and children and recommend them to anyone willing to explore specific strategies to help their children thrive at home, at school and in their community.
