💜🤍

Hyperactive ADHD is about much more than simply having lots of energy.

For some children, there is a persistent drive to move, talk, act or respond, with very little pause between the impulse and the action.

They may wriggle constantly, leave their seat, interrupt, struggle to wait, seek activity and find it incredibly difficult to slow their body and brain down — even when they are tired.

From the outside, that can sometimes be mistaken for poor behaviour, lack of boundaries or a child “just being lively”.

The important difference is the pattern, persistence and impact on everyday life. One energetic afternoon is not ADHD.

Understanding what is happening underneath the behaviour helps us respond with support, structure and realistic expectations rather than simply asking a child to “try harder” to be still.

🌿 NEW AT THE CALM CORNER WALK & TALK THERAPY 🌿

Did you know The Calm Corner supports adults too?

We know that traditional therapy isn’t for everyone.

Perhaps the thought of sitting opposite someone in a counselling room feels a little too intense.

Maybe you find it easier to talk when you’re moving, struggle to sit still, or simply feel more comfortable outside than within four walls.

That’s why we’re really excited to introduce Walk & Talk Therapy for adults at The Calm Corner. 💚

Walk & Talk Therapy takes counselling out of the traditional therapy room and into the outdoors. You’ll walk alongside one of our Lead Practitioners, at your own pace, while having the same meaningful therapeutic conversations you would have in a counselling session.

🌿 Why Walk & Talk?

Being side-by-side can take away some of the intensity of sitting face-to-face.

Gentle movement can help us feel less “stuck” and give us space to think and reflect.

Being outdoors and around nature can feel calming and grounding.

And for some people, conversation simply flows more naturally when they’re walking.

You don’t need to be particularly fit — this isn’t an exercise session! We walk at a comfortable pace and can pause whenever needed.

Walk & Talk Therapy may support adults experiencing anxiety, low mood, stress, relationship difficulties, grief, loss of confidence, overwhelm or simply a feeling that something in life needs to change.

So if you’ve been thinking…

“I know I could do with some support, but traditional counselling just isn’t for me…”

This could be your alternative. 🌿

Sometimes talking feels easier when we’re not sitting still.

Walk. Talk. Breathe. Be heard.

☀️ SUMMER OF STRENGTH 💛

What a wonderful morning we had at our Summer of Strength workshop! 🌈

Our young people spent time thinking about their “Summer Brains” — recognising the things that have made them feel good this summer, as well as the worries that can sometimes take up a little too much space.

We talked about emotions, worries and the different tools we can use when things feel overwhelming. 🧠💭

✨ We created our own worry stones
🧰 Built personalised wellbeing toolkits filled with the strategies and activities we’d made
🧘 Finished our morning with a calming guided meditation
🏅 And everyone went home with their toolkit, everything they had created and their very own certificate of participation.

The aim was simple: for every child to leave with practical tools they can use long after the workshop has finished — and a reminder that all feelings are welcome. 💚

A huge thank you to all the brilliant young people who joined us and made the session so special.

And of course, a huge thank you to National Lottery players and The National Lottery Community Fund for helping us make our Young Minds Thrive workshops possible. 💗
