Paddling (perhaps struggling to change the world all on your own) is no good for stress or mental health. It is our aim to help you sail through life (allowing the sharing of good ideas to help you achieve whatever you want most).
There are no lack of good ideas around. The challenge to all of us is to select the best ones for where we are right now. This is where Stop Paddling excels as we listen to clients and design courses for you.
We help individuals:
• recover from mental distress
• understand their own stressors and emotional well-being
• improve understanding of others mental health issues
- and so
• improve relationships with family, friends and colleagues
- this is usually the key to
• achieving true potential
Most bipolar people claim to be able to see the world from alternative perspectives, whilst `experts' say this gift is not so special. Work with us and see what you think.
We help businesses:
• save money by reducing sickness absence, staff turn-over, accident/litigation
risks
• improve working within departments
• improve customer relations
• improve moral and productivity
Training can be at your place of work or we can arrange a conference centre to match your requirements.
Stop Paddling’s objectives include:
• helping people recover from stress related illness
• helping businesses reduce the stress felt by employees
• working with Occ Health to improve working conditions and aid recovery/rehabilitation
• providing `service user' input for training in the caring professions
Our network of supporters allows us to call on trainers in the stress and mental health fields to assist with faciliating courses anywhere in the UK.
