Welcome to Luminous Steps Online Group Work Community.

Luminous Steps demonstrates that talking about our relationships and circumstances with others who have shared understanding is a powerful and cathartic tool for wellness.

We are committed to providing you with a useful and facilitated group environment that allows you the opportunity to invest your time talking with others who share your motivation to improve your health.

What is Luminous Steps?

Online live video communication with your facilitator and other group participants in a safe space.

We understand that accessing a support group can be very challenging at times. Luminous Steps offers a unique alternative to traditional face to face meetings by allowing participants to come together and do meaningful work from the privacy of their own home.

Experience meaningful peer communication in the company of others who have similar life goals.

Luminous Steps acknowledges the experiences and stories of expertise that our online community brings to these group places. We know that talking about our relationships and circumstances with others who have shared understanding is a powerful and cathartic tool for wellness.

Learn strategies that allow you to be present in your life and focus on your wellbeing and self-care.

Some times in life its easier to take a step back – from our families, friends, social groups and community. Removing ourselves from difficult situations is a good survival strategy in the short term. However, a sense of belonging and genuine positive connections are core needs for our happiness. Luminous Steps walks along the path with you back to meaningful relationships and positivity.

There are lots of benefits joining us.

We understand that accessing a support group can be very challenging at times. Luminous Steps offers a unique alternative to traditional face to face meetings by allowing participants to come together and do meaningful work from the privacy of their own home.

Foster new friendships

In facilitated group work we form new relationships. These positive interactions can noticeably improve our feeling of wellbeing. Spending time in an environment of likeminded people is very powerful. 

Reduce social isolation

Challenging ourselves to connect with others in a safe online environment and participating in a collective helps us to feel connected to others. This strength in community helps us move forward. 

A safe place to talk

Join in conversations with others who have identified similar life priorities to your own. Feel confident that our facilitated conversations adhere to our values of respect, transparency and confidentiality. 

Learning from others

Hear stories about what works for other people and apply this knowledge to enrich your own journey. You are the expert of your own experience. Your knowledge is powerful too, and may support other people to be able to bring about positive change in their lives.

A sense of belonging

A sense of belonging can be so powerful that it can create both value in life and the ability to learn healthy coping skills when experiencing intensive and painful emotions. Make a choice to belong. Join something that is powerful for everyone involved. 

Managing Behaviour

Allow yourself the opportunity to talk about the difficulties of managing strong behaviours. It is physically and emotionally hard work managing difficult behaviour. Luminous Steps is a safe place to have these challenging conversations. 

Get involved in community

Actively listen to other people’s challenges and goals, and share you own ideas. Plan together acts of community participation. Get support in place for developing your own sense of community and cultivate your own local connections.

Energy from groupwork

Often feeling isolated and alone gets in the way of making positive choices. It helps to be a part of something, talking and working with others to put in place real life changes. Sharing our success and opportunities for further development really helps with our motivation to start moving forward.
