Student Wellbeing

There are times in our lives that we experience times of stress or anxiety.

Here are some helpful tips given to us last year by our Guest Speaker Georgina Manning from the Peaceful Kids Program.

Some classes have introduced Mindful Meditation into their daily routine.

Benefits of Mindfulness Meditation

Mindfulness has been scientifically proven to:

  • Decrease stress and anxiety
  • Allow connection with the self and values
  • Bring a sense of peacefulness and clarity
  • Increase self-awareness
  • Develop self-acceptance and confidence
  • Bring emotional balance and stability
  • Decrease worrying thoughts
  • Allow compassion and empathy to grow
  • Help to view experiences positively
  • Decrease symptoms of anxiety and depression
  • Improve physical symptoms
  • Improve sleep
  • Strengthen the immune system
  • Dramatically improve concentration and memory

You may like to practise this simple meditation with your family at home.

Please do not hesitate to contact me, if you have any enquiries or concerns.
