Martin Seligman (1974) proposed a cognitive explanation of depression called learned helplessness. According to Seligman's learned helplessness theory, depression occurs when a person learns that their attempts to escape negative situations make no difference.
On Saturday September 10th, we will be facilitating a 'Relief from Depression' day retreat. This will include all the therapeutic aspects of a Resurface retreat into day of creativity, self-discovery and self-care.
This retreat will focus on the concept of depression: defining what it means and how to find relief from depression and how to avoid relapsing back in to depression.
The day will include yoga facilitated by Kristine, meditation, experiential work and deep relaxation with Barnaby, and pscho-education and experiential group work with Josh.
We encourage you to eat together but if you would prefer to eat elsewhere please do bring your own lunch or check out the many other places to eat in Dalston.
We have all yoga equipment but if you wish to bring your own mat please do so.
Dress for yoga/meditation in the morning. For the experiential we will use clay which doesn't stain so feel free to dress as you wish.

It is the the power of surfing, experiential group therapy, psycho-education, mindfulness and bonding in an intimate group of 10 people that translate our healing goal into reality. We combine flow activities and group work in a progressive and efficacious way. We have clearly seen through our previous retreats that our clients often experience a deep therapeutic boost along with the acceleration of both understanding and recovery from some of their past traumas.
At Resurface we believe that it is the holistic approach of mind, body, science and fun, set in the confines of a small group in a safe environment that underline our success so far. Our aim is to facilitate turning traumas that unconsciously and negatively affect your behaviour and outlook on life today, into awareness supported by a portfolio of practical positive tactics, and a community of like minded ‘fellows’, to positively affect your life strategies and behaviours.
While we welcome everyone and have experience in treating a range of trauma related conditions, this program is particularly suitable to recovering addicts, PTSD sufferers, people with childhood issues and those frightened of life.

This exclusive, life-changing programme is dedicated to understanding the science of human flourishing. The goal of our programme is to give you the knowledge, tools and practice to deeply – significantly - impact your life strategies, in a fun, action-based week. It is the truly unique fusion of the power of surfing, positive psychology workshops, mindfulness, group therapy and bonding in an intimate group that translate our aim into reality.
At Resurface we believe that treating any psychological condition requires a holistic approach due to the complex nature of the human condition. Trauma and depression often impacts a client’s cognitive skills, emotional regulation and somatic responses. As a result of this we need a variety of interventions and approaches to successfully deal with all of these problems. The Resurface programme is primarily based on three evidence based modalities recommended by the American Psychiatric Association (APA), World Health Organisation (WHO) and the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) as safe and effective trauma treatment: EMDR, CBT and Mindfulness.
