Keeping Kids Calm Over the School Holidays
You might remember Fiona Doig from her story a few months ago and her business Creating Calm We caught up with her recently for an update of how things are going and this is what she had to share with us:
I did a Children’s Crystal Mala Breathing Bangle workshop over holidays which was amazing, we discussed Chakra’s, crystals and Mala’s, then we choose our charms to set our intent for what we wanted our bracelets to represent such as to feel calm or brave. We then choose our beads and took a breath in and out as we placed each bead on the string.

There was some Mandala colouring and chakra yoga for the children to try while they waited on everyone finishing then we all held our bangles and went round holding each bead and breathing in and out. We finished by discussing ways we can use our bangles to help us remember to use our breathing when we are feeling anxious.
What's next?

I am very excited to be going out to Kindy setting to deliver blocks of sessions which are incorporating Holistic Integrated Creative Arts Therapy, Creating Calm Coaching and Children’s Story Based Yoga. I will be sharing ideas with educators on how they can continue to incorporate these into their everyday practice.
Chakra Balancing Workshop
More details coming soon.
My love of healing crystals began after attending a Chakra balancing workshop with my 2 big sisters over 20 years ago; I was immediately impressed by the calm at peace way I felt during and after the chakra balance; and so began many years of collecting crystals pretty much everywhere I went
To help me process the grief of loosing our first child by developing my self healing abilities I first completed a Reiki course then a Crystal Healing course where I booked myself a cottage in the woods with a log burning fire inside and out where I stayed whilst I attended the course It was a time of great healing for me
Over the years I have used my crystals for Self Love and Self Care and often give myself a Chakra balance when I feel I need it; I am passionate in all my work to help others to develop their skills for self healing, so if you have an interest in crystals and would like to learn how to use them for Chakra balancing keep any eye out for more details on workshop coming soon.
