WELLNESS TRAINING
Meet Isobel
Coach, Trainer & Mindfulness Instructor
Welcome to the Sentiero Wellness Training website!
‘Sentiero’ means a pathway, track or trail in Italian.
To me, the word ‘Sentiero’ provides a link both to an image of nature (spending time in the great outdoors is increasingly being cited in studies as enhancing wellbeing for many) and to the analogy of following a pathway or taking a journey. As with coaching (see coaching page), I view life rather like a journey - we begin at a certain point, may or may not have an idea of exactly what we would like to achieve (the 'destination') or have a clear vision or road map of how we would like to get there. Although we arrive at many 'destinations' along the way, life continues to provide us with new paths to explore, and additional destinations and experiences continue to appear on the horizon. Nonetheless, as on any journey, it is important to take time to stop and pause along the way, to take time for ourselves and gather our inner resources.
After many years of experience working in various roles within international corporate settings, I decided to follow my love of working with people by sharing the knowledge I have gained through my studies in psychology, coaching and mindfulness, with others. The last few years have been challenging for many, due to factors such as the global COVID-19 pandemic, economic crises and conflicts in the world. The knowledge and skills included in the workshops and courses offered are based on sound empirical research and aim to help provide some tools and strategies to help us meet more easily the challenges we may face and also, most importantly, to remind us to take the time to savour and enjoy the experiences we may encounter along the way.
Whether you wish to organise stress management/prevention or resilience workshops for your team, explore how positive psychology may be applied in the workplace, organise individual coaching, or indeed take part in mindfulness sessions (for individuals or small groups), please feel free to use the contact page to request further information, a quote, or to organise a free introductory call.
Workshops and training may take place in your workplace, in France or in the UK, or, depending on suitability, online.
With Master’s Degrees in Applied Positive Psychology & Coaching Psychology, and Occupational Psychology, and additional coaching training in specific areas (stress management/prevention, performance, communication & assertiveness, health & wellbeing, and developing psychological resilience), I am also a Graduate Member of the British Psychological Society, an Associate Member of the ISCP (International Society for Coaching Psychology) and an Accredited Mindfulness Now instructor.
