On Thursday 7th March, the gym was filled with the aroma of essential oils as St Mary’s held its first Holistic Therapies Fair. All students and staff were invited to drop in and take the opportunity to talk to professionals from a variety of different holistic therapies which aim to help improve wellbeing and mental health. The event was well supported, and attendees enjoyed the opportunity to sample products and try out some different techniques, as well as learn more about the many different therapies available.
It was wonderful to welcome professionals from a range of different fields, including Life Coaching, Yoga, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT - tapping), Equine Therapy, Aromatherapy and Meditation, Hot Crystal Healing, Deep Tissue Massage, Reflexology and Hypnotherapy.
We very much hope the Fair provided both students and staff with some additional ideas and tools to support their mental wellbeing.
