Supporting Mental Health with Heads2Mind

 

Class 3 were visited, this morning, by Becky from Head2Minds.

Heads2Minds are a charity whose mission is to create a world where everyone facing mental health and wellbeing challenges feels safe, understood, and respected. They aim to empower individuals to speak openly about their mental health and providing the tools for lasting change, They are working towards a world where everyone has the support they need to live healthier, happier lives.

 

During this workshop, they spoke about the importance of mental well-being and how to keep our mind healthy.

They practised some calming techniques, such as:

• ·        Calming earth smells
• ·        Problem solving – how to support and help others
• ·        Breathing exercises including the bubble breathing technique
• ·        Linking the different types of weather to different types of emotions

 

Hopefully, the children can use the techniques learnt!

 

Well done Class 3!
