Can’t you see? It’s so therapeutic being a tree!

We use Stormbreak to improve children’s mental health through movement and help them to develop coping strategies to thrive during the complex demands of growth into adult life.

In today’s Stormbreak. we headed to the woodland area for a time of reflection. We asked the children to be as quiet as possible, listen to all the sounds they could hear and concentrate on their breathing. It was so refreshing and relaxing hearing the wind blowing through the trees and the birds singing. The children were visibly calmer by the experience.

We then channeled our inner tree indoors as we grew from a little seed into a strong, sturdy tree ready to tackle an afternoon of learning feeling energised.

A simple time of reflection can really work wonders when life gets busy, and difficulties arise. The children did remarkably well, and it was extremely fun stormbreaking together.
