HeartMind Connections with Ruth Donnelly

Buddhist Psychotherapy

Buddhist psychotherapy with Ruth brings together the wisdom and compassion of the ancient teachings and practices of Tibetan Buddhism, with modern therapeutic methods to provide a holistic approach to emotional, mental and spiritual health.

Ruth has many years experience working with clients to help them reconnect to their essential self, released from the traumas of daily living, to shine their light more brightly into the world.

'In life we may feel broken, but deep down we are un-broken.  We may feel hurt, lost, damaged, betrayed, trapped from the circumstances that life has brought us.  But inside our light still shines waiting to be reconnected, calling out to be reconnected to our lives.  We can find a new way forwards.  It's not too late!'

Personal sessions with Ruth are available online or in person.  You do not need to know anything about buddhism or to 'be a buddhist' to find these sessions helpful.  This work is about connecting to your essential strengths and from this place holding your wounding with love and compassion such that the pain releases and new possibilities open up for you.

Self Care

Ruth teaches self care methods based on yoga, meditation and art therapy.  

Ruth is trained in Dru Yoga and Trauma Sensitive Yoga and together these offer accessible movement methods to developing wellbeing.  These are complimented by the somatic meditations of Reggie Ray.  Learn to enjoy being present in your body in movement and in stillness.

Ruth offers Transformative Mindfulness (TMM) methods as therapeutic sessions and as self care.  This direct and simple approach to mindfulness works with what is arising in the moment and brings change immediately.  TMM uses simple art therapy to support the process of awareness and change.

'I use Dru Yoga, somatic meditation and TMM in my own life to improve and maintain my sense of wellbeing.  I find them powerful and effective, yet simple and enjoyable.  I offer these methods to others to share the benefits I have found personally, that together we may contribute more beneficially to our world.'

Personal training in these self care methods is available online, contact Ruth for more information.
