In collaboration with Made for Life Organics, The Spa at Carden hosted a “Tea and Tools” event earlier this month, designed for men whose partners may be going through cancer or who are navigating their own personal journey.
Led by Jamie Edwards, a renowned mental performance coach with a wealth of experience in helping individuals manage life’s complexities, this session offered practical tools that can be seamlessly integrated into daily life. Whether it’s looking to support your inner circle and family or seeking guidance on how to manage your own mental and emotional well-being, “Tea and Tools” is designed to equip men with the skills they may need.
Navigating the emotional and psychological challenges that come with a cancer diagnosis, whether personally or within your family, can be incredibly daunting. Difficult conversations, feelings of helplessness, and the struggle to maintain a sense of normalcy are just a few of the issues many face. Jamie Edwards provided strategies and insights to help approach these situations with confidence and care.
This event was very well received with one of the guests who attended said “It was really useful, and good to be with other blokes who have or are going through the same experiences”
Jamie’s Edwards said “This was more than just chatting about experiences. These men went away with tools they could apply immediately…. “
Emma Pridding, Spa Director at The Spa at Carden said “We have had a long-standing partnership with Amanda Winwood and Made for Life Organics, and it is a true honour to provide a nurturing and soothing environment for men living with or undergoing cancer treatment. It was truly inspiring to see guests open up about their experiences, providing a much-needed space for relaxation, connection, and rejuvenation tailored to a male audience. Our goal was to offer comfort and kindness, and Jamie Edwards was able to offer excellent advice for guests to take away with them. We are grateful to everyone who made this day so meaningful."
Due to its success, The Spa at Carden is hosting another “Tea and Tools” event on the 13th November. Register here: www.cardenpark.co.uk/register-for-tea-support-events/
