FREE WEBINAR: The Wellbeing Zone: For Trauma‑Informed Faith Practice
3 June @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
An Interactive Webinar with Sarah Armitage
How do we support people well in a hurting world?
More and more people are carrying hidden pain, anxiety, overwhelm, trauma, emotional exhaustion, grief and distress.
And for those serving in counselling, chaplaincy, pastoral care, ministry or church leadership, the question is becoming increasingly important:
How do we respond with wisdom, compassion and care, without causing harm or becoming overwhelmed ourselves?
This interactive webinar will help you develop practical, trauma-informed tools to support wellbeing in yourself and others, grounded in faith, presence and compassionate practice.
Discover a more grounded, compassionate approach to care
Join Sarah Armitage — former Waverley Abbey College student, tutor and author of The Wellbeing Zone — for a practical and hope-filled session designed to equip Christians in helping roles.
You’ll explore simple, accessible frameworks that can be used in:
- Counselling and chaplaincy
- Pastoral conversations
- Small groups and ministry settings
- Everyday moments of care and support
This is about helping people feel safer, calmer and more supported — while also caring for your own wellbeing in the process.
What you’ll explore
- Understanding wellbeing. Why wellbeing matters and how trauma impacts emotional and spiritual life.
- The Wellbeing Zone. A practical framework for trauma-informed faith practice.
- The PEACE & PRAY models. Simple, versatile tools offering grounding and faith-rooted responses to distress.
