ST talks Genuine Genitals
ST talks is passionate about creating innovative psychosexual approaches including presenting alternative workshops discussing Sexual Anatomy.
Genitals in society have traditionally been illustrated clinically by doctors, midwives or educators. The portrayal can immensely impact physical, mental, emotional health and sexual relationships. ST talks desire to introduce genital awareness to individuals as well as society as a whole resulted in the creation of Genuine Genitals.
ST talks engage the mind and body to express and explore experiences. Learn to communicate feelings and thoughts that may be difficult to verbalise, and identify, through alternative perspectives. Boost self-esteem, feel more engaged, improve cognitive function, and build emotional resilience and social skills.
Groups are small to encourage a sense of community and connection. It can create an outlet to share inner experience experiences and open discussion if desired. The workshops are bespoke delivered in a holistic manner often in conjunction with other techniques such as mindfulness, yoga and sound baths.
ST talks Mindfulness
Samantha trained with the Oxford Mindfulness Centre within the University of Oxford. ST talks delivers Mindfulness courses online within workshops and retreats.
Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) Online Courses
Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy for depression (MBCT) is an eight-week group programme recommended in national health guidelines for people who suffer from depression, either currently, or in the past. Weekly sessions last two hours and combine mindfulness meditation with cognitive therapy exercises enabling us to become more aware of our mind and body and begin to dissolve some of our unhelpful habits of thinking such as rumination, worry and self-criticism.
MBCT fosters several key skills:
- Recognition of Automatic Pilot: Learning to live more fully in the present by engaging actively with current experiences rather than operating automatically.
- Increased Awareness of Mental Habits: Gaining the ability to recognise and modify habitual responses to everyday stress.
- Cultivating Compassion and Balance: Developing a kinder stance towards oneself and others, enhancing emotional resilience.
Through Samantha’s integrative use of experiential therapy and mindfulness, clients are equipped not just to cope with mental health challenges but to thrive, fostering a richer, more fulfilling life experience.
