Healthy Body, Healthy Mind

Last Updated: 02/10/2024

The Healthy Body, Healthy Mind project is a six-week programme, run by NW Counselling Hub in partnership with Central Wellness in Lincolnshire.

The programme has been designed for those who have been affected by suicide and/or mental health difficulties, whether this is due to their own personal experiences, or whether they have been affected by suicide or poor mental health through a friend or family member.

The aim of Healthy Body, Healthy Mind is to gain the benefit of gentle exercise and mindfulness that yoga brings, with the opportunity to speak to a counsellor in a group setting, in company with people who can relate to one another, providing a support network and benefits through shared experiences.

Yoga sessions will be fully accessible, being modified to allow those who may have physical or mobility issues to complete the classes too.

Anyone over the age of 18 years can participate and you can just book and turn up, you do not need to be referred via our Counselling Hub.

We will just ask for a few basic details on arrival.

Attendees will be expected to attend every week for six weeks to gain the full benefit of the programme.

This is good for wellbeing because

  • Healthy Body, Healthy Mind encourages gentle, accessible exercise in a safe, comfortable and trauma-informed environment.
  • Healthy Body, Healthy Mind incorporates mental and physical health; it allows combinations of the benefits of gentle and accessible exercise with the opportunity to speak to a qualified counsellor and meet like-minded individuals with similar experiences to help one another.
  • It removes barriers to accessing both mental and physical health support.
