Super to see a demonstration of pencil and palm rolling! So easy to do and provides a mini-pause to aid concentration and focus 😊

What insights! I love their similes that also help to express and communicate emotional visitors 😁

Storytelling is an effective method of introducing new ideas to children as it is able to bring information to life in a meaningful way!📚 As children are guided through a story, they are able to attach new concepts to characters within the story who are experiencing them!🐿

Rilke’s words echo in my mind daily right now. “Let everything happen to you. Beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.” It’s hard to see at times, so slow it can’t be seen, but it’s all moving isn’t it? Just keep going 🤍

Self-regulation doodling 😁

Animal qualities work so well when discussing emotional qualities and experiences. It gives ways for children to express without just using labels. Getting curious and emotionally exploring - brilliant!

What a wonderful display of positive mental health practice #mentalhealthawarenessweek2023

Resetting and regulating nervous systems at school. Wonderful! 🤗

We welcomed Jo today to lead a whole school well-being session. The children were engaged and calm. We had a great discussion about our emotional visitors and how they might look from the outside. Seeing all the children doing fraction breathing was very special. Jo Bradley

I’ve arrived! Ready for the CAPH conference tomorrow. Enjoying the sea air and walking at a pace after a long drive 😁
