We're constantly hearing how high street retailers need to offer experiences as well as products to lure us to visit and shop, and one Carmarthen shop, Spiffy, is doing just this.
Spiffy, the charming gift shop in Nott Square brands itself the Live Well Gift Shop, offering a helping hand to happiness. But along with its imaginative and refreshing range of gifts, Spiffy along with personal development experts Goscar, are currently running How To Live Well workshops in West Wales.
FYI went along to two worshops this week - in Narbeth and Saundersfoot. Lesley Jones, workshop leader, has 30 years experience and a lovely relaxed engaging style. But you're encouraged to think, express yourself, compare feelings and most importantly make a decision to take some action.
I went to the time and energy workshop and the habits workshop. As a result I'm starting my day doing something I love rather than something dutiful (no chocolate or gin involved, promise!) and am going for a walk at 4pm rather than snaffling three welshcakes. These workshops give you a terrific opportunity to take a bit of time out, and review how you operate best every day.
There are two more available next week https://livespiffy.co.uk/collections/live-well-workshops-narberth and we do wish Spiffy and Lesley all the very best for their positive and creative project. More stories
