WELCOME

Seigaiha - pronounced SA KA HA - a pattern that represents movement of life itself always in motion.

All individuals, families, experience life stages and change as they grow. Events in living can create joy, optimism and hope. Yet at times there may be feelings of sadness, hopelessness and negativity.

These events can become challenges. In today's busy world the experiences can be overwhelming for a variety of reasons, it could be the environment? circumstance? health?


At these moments the following may be needed;
support, a solution focus, a sense of hope, someone to talk to, someone who will listen, a creative way to expressing feelings.

At Seigaiha Counselling/Art Therapy services we will work with you on what you feel is needed. Our aim is to promote health and well being using approaches of counselling/art therapy that will suit you individually.

We provide one on one counselling, therapeutic groups, workshops, tailored to needs being identified in the community.

We have an emphasis of finding creative ways to solutions, working together.

We offer Professional Supervision and professional development to other professionals

ART THERAPY ACTIVITY
For a fun sense of well being

Revisiting your creativity, YES we all have some.

What you need:
Some quiet time and a space
a couple of pieces of A4 paper, larger if you have it.
Some coloured crayons, textas, pastels (what ever you have to hand)

The process: 
Choose one crayon colour you are most attracted to.  
(don't put it back, stay with the first one you looked at or picked up)
Across the page write your name.
Write it again in any spaces you can see.
No wrong way to do this, it will just be.
Take another colour and write your name.
Fill in any spaces.

Take some time to look at what you have written.
What letters stand out?  What shapes do you like?

On the 2nd sheet of paper emphasise the shapes of the letters that you liked.
Use any colours and allow yourself to freely explore these shapes.
Let the process unfold onto your paper.

There is no time limit
When you feel you have done the process give yourself a word to describe 
how you felt doing this.

Have fun.

LAUGHTER @ COOLART PARK SOMERS

I have been working behind the scenes to get Laughter in the Park.    We are nearly up and running at COOLART Wetlands & Homestead thanks to Parks Victoria and the rangers for giving us the space to come and share laughter for no cost.

As a trained leader and a part of Laughter Clubs Victoria free laughter in the community at Coolart on the last Sunday of each month. 9.30 a.m. for approximately half hour is about to happen.

An opportunity to come out and socialise have fun and then walk around the beautiful grounds of the Coolart Weltand & homestead.  Bring your own lunch or late breakfast and stay for longer.

 Flyers and more information will be in this space shortly.  We are aiming for Sunday 30th September.  Contact: 0409174128 to confirm or just take a chance and come along.  It's a great venue!!
