Feeling the stress of school life, or even just being a teenager? This workshop for secondary school students will help you to reduce stress, focus and be ready to face whatever challenges come your way!
Imagine there’s a bucket you carry with you which slowly fills up when you experience different types of stress. Sometimes, you feel strong enough to carry a lot of stress, but it’s important to find activities that help you lighten the load. In this workshop, Mandy Johnson will give you a tried and tested toolkit using mindfulness and other techniques to help you learn to focus, regulate your emotions, manage stress and create a more positive outlook. Come along and give it a try!
“I am grateful to Miss Johnson for highlighting the importance of mindfulness and meditation. One example stands out for me. Last year we had a year 11 boy who was struggling with school and with a particularly challenging home environment. He was angry and sometimes disruptive in school. In three meditation sessions, he found a peace and calmness which he (nor I) thought possible. I witnessed first-hand the power of meditation upon a much-troubled young man. It is transformational over time”.
