Many of you have supportive friends, family and colleagues but don’t feel you have the space to talk about the current struggles you are facing. Perhaps you’ve tried but they’ve told you, “everyone feels like that” minimising your experiencing, or, “you’re gonna be fine don’t worry about it”, leaving you feeling misunderstood or pushed aside. We want to create a space where you can bring yourself with no judgement, where you can have your voice heard and your experiences met with kindness and validation.
Perhaps someone else’s story will connect with you. Perhaps supporting another will also help your healing.
Please join us at this FREE event to expand your support network here in Bangkok. At this time, it will be a FEMALE identifying group only, who can speak at least basic English.
Join us in this safe space on October 4th and feel free to buy non-alcoholic drinks in the cafe and bring them up with you.
As a trained Psychotherapist, I am happy to offer you some techniques you can use daily when thoughts begin to spiral or you feel depression creeping in.
The plan for the hour in the private studio will be basic grounding/present moment exercises to help you feel calm, creating a metaphorical safety box for you when you feel unsafe/overwhelmed/anxious etc and also some light-hearted partner work.
You do NOT have to do anything you are not comfortable with. I just ask that you respect others, look after yourself and keep people's stories confidential.
The choice of sharing your stories and making friends will be at 6:45pm in the cafe where Samantha (the owner) has kindly offered to section off the restaurant for us. They have delicious food and drinks on offer for dinner too!
Please also Bring PEN & PAPER.
We will be providing Red wrist bands for those of you who do not wish to share your story, yellow bands if you are willing to support and listen to other people’s stories, and a green wristband which means you’re happy to talk about anything for now. You may change these wristbands any time throughout the meet up.
Please RSVP if possible to ensure there are enough pillows for you to sit on and wristbands.
