Taking notice - the surprisingly powerful way to boost wellbeing
Aug 06, 2025In this video, I’m exploring one of the most overlooked (but powerful) ways to boost wellbeing: taking notice.
We’ll look at how slowing down and tuning into the present moment can calm the nervous system, ease anxiety, and build emotional awareness. Whether you're a parent, teacher or ELSA, this is a gentle, evidence-based approach that can help both you and your child feel more grounded this summer.
I'll share:
š Why it works
š What it could look like in everyday life
š And how to make it work for your family or your classroom
The book I mention is Mindful Games by Susan Kaiser Greenland.
