How do you feel?

2020 and 2021 were challenging for many of us and 2022 brought different things to deal with. It seems as if we may always live in uncertain times. We know that the tools and techniques underpinning everything we do at Fresh Air Fridays support mental and emotional wellbeing, without exception. Our mental and emotional health impacts on our physical wellbeing. Noticing our thoughts and feelings, alongside having the tools that enable us to process those thoughts and feelings, help us to build resilience.

We would love you to join us on one of our Breathing Space sessions. They do what it says on the tin. 30 minutes just for you, tools and space for you to pause and relax. They will help you cope with whatever is going on for you at this moment in time.

You’ll find lots of information on our Total Wellbeing pages.

We’ll be sharing more in our Fresh Air Fridays Facebook group so please join us there.

Sign up to our Weekly emails – exploring our different themes – another support for you around your own wellbeing and making positive life changes.

How are you?

Busy? Anxious or stressed? Running on empty? Need some breathing space? Stuck and not sure what’s next for you? Feeling a bit low and don’t really know why? Keen to create the best life you can? Want to improve your wellbeing? Love being outside? Perhaps you’re feeling brilliant and want to ensure this continues? 

If you answered ‘YES’ to any of these questions, then you’re in the right place. 

Feel Good Work Well

We love being able to take people outside on our Wellbeing for Everyone community sessions – see below – but we know that’s not always possible. So we’ve created the next best thing.

Feel Good, Work Well is a transformational programme and showcases the essence of all we teach and share on Fresh Air Fridays. If you would like your life to be different – if you would like to improve your important relationships, be more motivated, have more clarity, feel happier, and experience more joy this is the perfect programme for you.

The clever structure makes it simple to create lasting habits that make a significant difference, whilst an open coaching approach enables you to make the changes that are most relevant to you. This programme is made up of 12 x 30-40 minute sessions that we encourage you to listen to whilst out walking. So, whether things are rough for you at the moment and you are ready for change or things are good but you know there is more, this programme will make the difference.

Why go it alone? We can support you

We know that it’s easier together! Using the brilliant audio from ‘Feel Good, Work Well’ – on this version you are supported by a group of like-minded people and a highly skilled facilitator. We’ve seen this programme transform 100’s of people’s lives and we would love you to be one of them. 

Each week you will be asked to listen to one of the audio sessions whilst out walking. This will be followed by an hour’s online session with a small group of fellow participants and one of our specially trained facilitators to further explore your learning from the audio. This programme helps you maximise your learning and stay focused on what you are seeking to achieve.

There’s more information in the course description in the shop.

Wellbeing for Everyone

Fresh Air Fridays provides you with a safe, non-judgemental space for you to explore what is most important to you and your life. Our Wellbeing for Everyone are community sessions, open to anyone over 18 years old who is keen to maintain and improve their wellbeing. Together in a small group we practice skills to develop our mental and emotional wellbeing and increase our resilience. 

All our sessions take place outside. There are a number of reasons for that but mainly because it makes us all feel good! Being out in nature helps us become more relaxed and more resourceful. The motion of walking enables us to access both sides of our brain making us more creative and better able to problem-solve. There is a significant and growing body of research showing that being in green spaces, and particularly amongst trees, is good for our wellbeing.

What difference does developing my wellbeing make?

Everything starts with you – when you take care of yourself, you’re so much more able to deal with the challenges that life often brings. You’re also able to be there for others and choose how you show up in the world. On our sessions we explore a series of themes. These are designed to empower you to really start living the life you want.

Sessions are 2 1/2 – 3 hours long and run on a monthly basis.

We really do take you outside so you feel good on the inside!

Don’t just take our word for it, here Megan shares how the programme has benefited her.

We’d love you to join us!

Sessions run on different days of the week (not just on Fridays) and are listed on our Sessions page, where you can book your place.

We see that people get the most from Fresh Air Fridays when they join as a member, mainly because they make a commitment to themselves and their lives. Our annual membership fee is £25 when paid monthly (or £250 if you pay for the year in a lump sum). Amazing value! As a Fresh Air Fridays annual member, you can go on as many sessions as you like, with any of our facilitators across the UK. You will also be given a copy of our Fresh Air Fridays book, with lots on how you can support yourself to achieve what you want in your life.
