Garden mindfulness

Service Description

Sessions are free Gibby Gardening offers sessions that provide a rejuvenating experience, reconnecting with nature and calming the mind and body through gardening. No prior experience is necessary, as all levels are welcome to join. Our approach combines calming breathing techniques, meditation tools, and hands-on side-by-side gardening to help participants relax into their work. This method of care has been proven to reduce anxiety and promote overall well-being. Some examples of the activities we provide include; digging with a spade or hand trowel; planting, seeding & pruning. I am open to suggestions as well. I have a certificate in counselling. And although this does not permit me to carry out therapy sessions, it does mean I am a really good listener. I listen with kindness, empathy and without judgement, so I encourage you to have a chat with me if you feel like you need to talk. All group sessions are held in garden spaces within Rotherfield Village. Our main space would be using land on The Kings Arms Pub. If you think this is for you, please come join me and experience the therapeutic benefits of gardening with Gibby Gardening. Please make sure you dress appropriately for the weather. There will be spaces to shelter depending on where we are. But unfortunately I can not control the weather. Appropriate foot wear would be , walking shoes, wellies or trainers you don't mind getting dirty. Things you'll need to bring Gloves (Although we will try to have sometime without the gloves, touching soil is great for your immune system) Spade, Hand Trowel (I can offer a couple, but not to all) Notebook and pencil Your own water bottle and any snacks you would like to bring I will offer, anything else that is required for that session & a beautiful setting to relax in.
