A moment to pause

A moment to breathe

A moment to feel the sun

A moment to watch the light dance

A moment to watch the rhythm of the wind

A moment to pause

Come take a walk 🌼

As we step into spring getting outside can feel a little easier

As we walk I offer opportunity to pause, reflect, or just take in our surroundings.

Fancy a walk? DM or email to arrange a time

Ever feel like your thoughts are too loud for the room you’re in? ☁️✨

When you’re feeling overwhelmed or confused, your internal world can feel cramped and cluttered.

As a psychotherapist, I often guide my clients to look for the “big sky.” There is a profound psychological shift that happens when we trade our screens for a vast view or a wide-open horizon.

Why the Vastness Matters:

☁️ The “Small Self” Effect: Research shows that experiencing vastness triggers awe, which naturally diminishes the “ego” or self-focus. When you feel small in the face of a massive sky, your worries often follow suit.

☁️ Quieting the Noise: Studies using fMRI scans found that awe-inspiring views can quiet the brain’s Default Mode Network (DMN) the area responsible for rumination and overthinking.

☁️ Cognitive Accommodation: Perceptual vastness forces our minds to “make room” for a new perspective. It’s like hitting a mental reset button that helps you see the bigger picture when you’re stuck in the details.

☁️ Physiological Grounding: Just 15 minutes of looking at a wide, open landscape can lower cortisol levels and heart rate, physically moving your body from “threat mode” to a state of calm.

Next time your head feels too full, find a horizon. Let the sky hold the weight for a while. 🌬️⛰️

The weather lately has felt heavy, hasn’t it?

Almost as if the grey skies are pressing down on us, making the days feel longer and the path a little steeper. ☁️

When the world feels dark and a bit oppressive, our minds tend to follow suit. But even in the deepest stretch of winter, nature is quietly preparing.

I’ve been intentional this week about looking for glimmers ✨ those tiny signs that the season is shifting:

⭐ The delicate white heads of snowdrops lining the hedgerows.

⭐ The soft, dancing catkins on the trees.

⭐ The first lambs finding their feet in the fields.

Taking a moment to truly notice these things doesn’t change the weather, but it can change how we feel within it. It reminds us that “stuck” is often just “waiting.”

What’s one small glimmer you’ve spotted today? 👇

🌿 Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) 🌿

I am a qualified facilitator in TCTSY – the original, evidence-based form of trauma-sensitive yoga developed at the Trauma Center in Boston.

✨ What makes TCTSY unique?
• Rooted in research, neuroscience, trauma and attachment theory
• Supported by a large body of peer-reviewed studies
• Practitioners maintain registration and follow a strict code of ethics
• A gentle, invitational approach – with choice throughout



This is not about performance or “doing yoga right.” It is about creating safe space, noticing your body, and exploring what feels supportive for you.

Hi! I thought I’d take a moment to introduce myself and show my face here.

I’m Eleanor, a Psychotherapist & Counsellor

Alongside my work, I’m someone who loves walking, being outdoors, and exploring new places — whether that’s a quiet path in the hills or discovering somewhere I’ve never been before. Nature and movement are things that keep me grounded, and I often find they’re the same small things that help many of us feel more connected to ourselves.

This space is where I’ll share a little about me, my work, and how therapy can support you. If you’re new here, thanks for stopping by🌿

🍃 Ways we might work together 🍃

Sometimes the best place to talk isn’t in a room—it’s under the open sky. Walking therapy in nature offers a gentle way to explore what’s on your mind while moving at your own pace. Fresh air, grounded steps, and compassionate support. 🌿💬

If you’re curious about how this could help you, reach out—I’d love to walk alongside you. 💚
