I’ve debated with myself about this recommendation for the past while, nothing to do with the service or expertise provided, but more so because of my own ‘perceived’ stigma relating to mental health issues. The truth is that I contacted Insula Wellbeing when I was at a truly horrible point in my life, affecting not just me, but my wife and children. After years, and I mean YEARS, of reaching out to my doctor and taking pills, stronger pills and more pills, I had to make a change. It has been the hardest journey, but my biggest regret was not starting it sooner. I am so thankful for everything Sharon has helped me achieve. More...

I recently completed the Overwhelmed to Energised course online. It was brilliant. Not only was it really clear to follow and easy to understand, it’s packed full of practical advice and exercises you can do when you feel overwhelmed. The course also has downloadable PDFs which you can use as part of the exercises and I found that really useful as I’m a very visual learner and love to write things down. If you are feeling worried or stressed I’d really recommend this course. More...
