Meet Liz, the Mindfullness coach who recently provided sessions to the children and young people who attend SEAL.

Liz has been so warm and caring in all of the support she had provided the children and young people with. We hope we can have Liz back next year funding allowed.

Liz told us,
"Studies have shown that practicing mindfulness is beneficial to our health and well-being. Here are some;
Helps to manage emotions, improve focus and enjoyment of life
Regular practice can foster a sense of calm, presence and connection with bodily sensations.
Being present enhances happiness and helps us to appreciate small moments in nature, with
loved ones or sensory experiences.

The groups all engaged in the sessions well. Each child participated in their own way. Some showed curiosity by coming in and out of the sessions and listening/watching. Most were able to stay for the whole time and engaged in all the practices. Staff were surprised that some of the
young people could become so quiet and calm.
The children themselves were positive and inquisitive. Comments included “You made me
calm”, “I feel happy”, “That was good”. One non verbal child became very calm and sat beside a
staff member which was unusual."

Thank you again Liz!
