Minds Matter is a workshop that covers key points around uncovering the definition of mental health and self-esteem, and how students can address their individual needs whilst maximising productivity. We will also give students the tools they need to prepare for their next steps and be confident so to alleviate pressures.
We cover the following themes:
Mending mindsets
Raising self-esteem – looking at self-care and self-image
Accentuating the positive
Social media – #Cleaningyourfeed
Working productively, coping effectively
Unboxing strategies for future success
The 1 hour fully interactive workshop takes notes from the NHS, Mind, The Wellbeing Thesis, Young Minds and Student Minds, using a combination of techniques such as positive affirmation and inner child visualisation technique, and working productively within a home environment.
