Some learning stays with you long after the workshop ends.

Come experience Japan - its culture, its stillness, its wisdom - alongside a community of like-minded practitioners. Wander through bamboo groves, soak in an onsen, share a meal, and return home not just professionally enriched, but genuinely restored.

This is CPD that takes care of you, too.

We believe the best professional knowledge isn't gained under stress - it's acquired when you're rested, reflective, and fully immersed.

Our 17+ CPD hours are built on a foundation of practitioner wellbeing and deep experiential learning:

🌿 Self-Care as a Core Competency: Dedicated time for mindfulness, traditional onsen bathing, and Japanese somatic exercises. This isn't an add-on; it's the foundation for effective practice.

Knowledge Through Experience: Workshops are intentionally linked to the places you visit - from meditating with a monk in Tokyo to exploring existential themes at Fushimi Inari Shrine.

🤝 Community & Reflection: Up to 10 hours of structured peer supervision and facilitated reflective practice allow new insights to truly sink in.

Give yourself the gift of CPD that is genuinely transformative. Your renewed, professionally-engaged self will thank you.

📅 Every second Tuesday at 12 PM, we’ve come together online - this year and last - to learn, share, and reflect on the psychology behind various health conditions. This month, our focus on loneliness led to an incredibly enriching session for our community. ❤️ It reminded us of the vital importance of connection - not just with others, but also with ourselves. Through heartfelt discussions, we explored the many layers of connection, from fleeting moments with others to the deeper practice of reconnecting with our inner selves, the natural world, and our personal passions. 🌱✨ A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Rosemary Higgins for her expert guidance in facilitating these meaningful conversations and helping us create such a profound sense of shared humanity and belonging. 🙏 Psychology
