This 2-day programme provides an overview to relaxation skills training. It has been designed for practitioners wishing to use relaxation techniques and skills within their practice including psychologists, coaches, counsellors, and health trainers. Research has found that relaxation techniques can reduce stress, anxiety and blood pressure, and enhance performance and wellbeing. With regular practice, learning relaxation skills can become a useful coping strategy. Hence their use within relaxation based coaching and counselling based practice.

Although many practitioners already use relaxation techniques in their practice, they may not have attended a formal course. This programme is recognised by the International Society for Coaching Psychology (ISCP) and Approved by the British Psychological Society Learning Centre for the purposes of Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

Just published: The Conservatoire Coach’s Casebook Notes: a thematic analysis, by Jo Hensel, Stephen Palmer and Karen Wise

Although coaching has been shown to promote positive change and growth in higher education in general, there is very little evidence of its use in specialist higher music education where there is a call for increased support for positive psychological functioning. The purpose of this paper is to present an account of the challenges facing music students in a leading UK conservatoire, describing the issues that came up in the course of 1:1 solution-focused coaching sessions with the researcher.
