Well-being / PSHE | St John's CE (C) Primary School

Welcome to all things 'mindful' and 'well-being'

On this page you will find ideas for ways to relax, chill out and to be in the moment.

We are living in uncertain times, which are often out of our control but by finding a moment to just sit and be present it will help us to feel more grounded and happier.

Magination Press Story Time: Gail Silver Reads Mindful Bea and the Worry Tree

In the story 'Mindful Bea and the Worry Tree', Bea spots her worried thoughts and feelings in her body.
Are there places in your body where you feel worry?
When Bea gets worried, she keeps thinking 'what if' different things go wrong. Are there times when you found yourself getting worried like her? Was there anything you found helpful? Slowly take a deep breath in, as if smelling a flower. Now, close your eyes and think of something which you would like to let go. Breathe it out slowly, as if blowing out a candle.
