The Centre Welcomes Back Laurie Kelly

Because of Laurie’s reputation he is in demand from numerous organisations and presents similar sessions to what he is offering here in October. Laurie is often asked by participants if he does public programmes so that their families can hear him also. Hence the following two sessions.

Don’t Let Stress Devour You

A lot of people tell us that they’re stressed because of this or that but very often they come here after having numerous medical tests and their doctor saying, “It’s stress, so go along to the Relaxation Centre.”
Sometimes the stress in our bodies embeds itself so deeply it’s as if it has become a full time lodger. We then may notice signs which we don’t immediately relate to stress – signs such as poor concentration, extreme irritability, inability to be fully present, increasing accidents and sickness, poor sleep and strained relationships.
Throughout our programme you’ll find a diverse range of courses being offered in order to assist people to relax, reduce anxiety and feel renewed hope, vitality and enjoyment by embracing responsibility for their lives and recognising the power they have to make significant changes within themselves.
It’s good to remember that in the same way as stress and anxiety can insidiously creep into our lives, become embedded and even chronic, so too can such courses and ideas assist us, bit by bit, to bring back those welcome feelings that come with a quietened mind, a relaxed body and quality sleep.

So all in all, devoting time to doing something about stress is so much better than taking ever more drugs. The benefits are enormous in all aspects of our lives.
