FREE RESOURCES – Video: Finding Clarity and Calm in Lockdown

by | Jan 28, 2021

Are you a parent or carer who is struggling to find any clarity or calm during the latest pandemic lockdown? 

If so, don’t feel like you are alone. 

The latest lockdowns in the UK – and all over the world – have given parents a tremendous amount to deal with.

They are a test for relationships, they put pressure on those working from home and the challenges of keeping children learning and active is a big one.

Webinar

Join Wellbeing Therapy Solutions’ Kate Jackson for this webinar called ‘Finding Clarity and Calm During Lockdown’.

It is mainly aimed at parents, grandparents and carers who are supporting primary-school aged children.

It will focus on hints, tips, and support, helping viewers deal with the various challenges that are being thrown at them, including the issues of homeschooling.

So often it is our thinking around what is happening that causes the distress, rather than what is actually happening.

Notice your thoughts

One of the first things to start finding some calm and clarity, is to start noticing our thoughts.

Ask yourself: Are they helpful? Are they true?

If you can start noticing what you are feeling inside your body, it can be really helpful in realising how we are feeling.

Watch the video to learn more from Kate and put yourself in a better position to tackle the challenges that are being thrown at all of us during a pandemic.
