Ossy Joggers #runandtalk
The #runandtalk programme aims to:
-
gets people talking about mental health, sharing their experiences and removing stigma.
-
provides support and guidance to raise awareness of mental health problems.
-
supports people experiencing mental health problems to be physically active through walking, jogging or running, whether that is to help them in starting, returning to or continuing to run.
Run/Walk and Talk One to One Counselling Sessions
Outdoor therapy has many advantages.
- getting out in the fresh air
- exercise naturally improves mood, helping the body to create more feel good hormones.
- reduced emotional distress using bilateral stimulation i.e. walking/running.
- counselling outdoors is perhaps more laid back and less intimidating – walking/jogging side by side rather than sat immediately opposite.
Counselling
Ossy Joggers has partnered with Karma Minds
and is now able to offer FREE counselling support to members of Ossy Joggers.
These are one to one sessions and are separate from group run/walks. Ensuring confidentiality and privacy and adhering to the guidelines of the BACP Ethical Framework.
