Why Movement Matters - A Simple Way to Boost Your Child's Wellbeing this Summer.
Jul 30, 2025If your child has been struggling with school-based anxiety, the summer holidays can offer a much-needed chance to catch your breath—and gently support their emotional reset.
In this week’s video, I explore the second of the Five Ways to Wellbeing: staying active. But this isn’t about sports clubs or bootcamps—it’s about light, low-pressure movement that helps kids feel calmer, more focused, and possibly even a little more joyful.
We’ll talk about:
-
How physical activity supports mood, sleep, and confidence
-
How to make it fun and flexible (even if your child isn’t sporty)
-
Simple ways to build movement into your day without any pressure
It’s all about small, realistic steps that can make a big difference - ideas you can use straight away.
And if you’re looking for more information and tools to support your child with school-based anxiety, you’ll find them on my website and in my video blogs.
