Join us at Marketplace by SOS on Sunday 10th October for the first in our Wellbeing Workshops, to raise awareness of World Mental Health Day and meet with resident counsellor Romi Grossberg.
To mark the event Romi will be sharing simple take-home tools we can all do for ourselves to keep our family, friends and community safe and emotionally healthy.
COVID has been really tough for many and has increased our levels of stress, uncertainty, depression and anxiety. The greater the number in the community who understand the impact of mental health and with the skills to relieve some of these emotions, the more we can support and help each other from things like ‘collective anxiety’ or ‘contagious anxiety’. So let’s come together, learn together and support together.
We’ll be providing complimentary tea and homemade cupcakes donated by the lovely Moran.
Only 20 spots available. So register early to save your seat.
Date: Sunday 10th October
Time: 10:30am – 12:30pm (includes morning tea break)
Location: Marketplace by SOS, behind the Buffalo Steakhouse (Chaweng Ring Road).
Cost: This event is free to attend, but a small donation on the day to Sisters on Samui would be appreciated.

Below is a teaser from the one-hour interview of Dr Jim with counsellor Romi Grossberg on care/aftercare practice and the mental & emotional well-being of somatic practitioners and patients.
The full course will be released Aug 2021.
Working with emotions and conditions like anxiety, depression and emotional holding patterns requires specific skill sets which many acupuncturists and manual therapists do not have. However, since our methods often do result in emotional catharsis for people, it is essential to have the right communication skills and other techniques to support people in their healing process.To do this, talking therapies are essential as well as good communication skills. For therapists that are not psychologists, and frequently work with clients suffering from mental – emotional disorders, it is essential to have some skill sets for speaking with our patients.
In this course run by Chinese Medical Doctor Jim Spears, the topic of aftercare practise for acupuncturists and other somatic healers is addressed through an interview with Holistic Counsellor Romi Grossberg.

I was honoured to be invited by Sisters on Samui as a guest speaker in the theme of “celebrating women’s achievements: to share with us a little of their inspirations, their life journeys, and their involvement in non-profits.”
I spoke about my life’s journey into counselling and international development work, how to follow your dreams and listen to your inner guidance, your natural intuitive side that helps you know where to go when you stop, listen and trust.
Thank you to Sala Chaweng prepared a delicious array of sweet and savory snacks, including sandwiches, quiches and baked goods – along with a selection of scones, pastries and cakes; plus unlimited selection of tea or coffee.

Practical information and things we can do in Setting Boundaries.
Empath’s find it particularly difficult to not only set boundaries, but to keep their boundaries. In this workshop learn to understand why we all need boundaries. Learn how to say no without guilt and stress. Boundaries are empowering and keep us safe. Whilst many put a negative connotation on the word, boundaries is not a dirty word.
I was fortunate to have been contacted recently by the lovely Cassandra Michael, a Positive Psychology & Mindset Coach for empaths and highly sensitives. After a Zoom meeting and some emails back and forth she has invited me as a Guest Presenter on her online course. I will be facilitating a workshop on boundaries.

“Listen to resident counsellor Romi speak about our mental health and emotional well being in these uncertain times and how we can still move forward.” – Sanctuary Thailand.
It is very normal to be feeling pressure, stress, worry, grief or confusion at the moment. Here I talk about how we can move forward. Despite the loss of freedoms: loss of jobs, financial stability, mental health stability, physical contact, loss of routine, how we can still find peace, calm and balance.
