Fashion, health & beauty Health for the mind Kathy Godolphin has been working for over 12 years as a qualified and insured counsellor, and describes counselling in an effective way of working through a range of situations or challenges that may be troubling an individual’s emotional state or mental well-being. She combines many years of studying with a great deal of face-to-face experience over the years, including having worked as a counsellor at an Island primary school and senior school, as well as with male offenders in domestic violence. She has also facilitated addiction programmes, worked with street workers and in prison settings, with offenders, and written material for and facilitated anger management groups, self-esteem workshops, anxiety management groups and exam stress groups for Cowes Enterprise College. “Everyone has a story and every story is worth listening to – that’s the joy of counselling” says Kathy. She says that counselling provides a safe place to talk through anything in a confidential and non-judgemental manner and helps people to explore their problems, and find the answers that allow you to move them forward. “Here at Cowes Chiropractic Clinic there is a big focus on helping the body to heal itself” she says, “and this is the same with our emotional state. Given the time, space and guidance, talking things through can help to unravel what often appears insurmountable”. For further information call Cowes Chiropractic Clinic on 01983 282810.

With the lash lift, silicon pads are placed above the lid, and each individual lash is stroked onto them. Your eyes are closed for 45 minutes but in that time, you will also be treated to a relaxing arm and hand massage with a choice of soothing Neals Yard hand creams. Their lash treatment comes with a choice of small, medium or large curl, and includes a complimentary tint. This really makes the lashes stand out, opening the eyes, and giving you the appearance of fuller, volumised lashes with extra length. The treatment is highly recommended to clients who do not like to wear mascara day to day. The tint creates a mascara effect, so your lashes are perfect from the moment you wake up and, with good care, the lash lift effect can last for up to two months. For safety reasons, a tint and perm test will be required 24 hours prior to treatment. The picture here shows the stunning results on one of our clients after a lash lift treatment.
