Chloe Love from Know Your Mind held a workshop for children and young people on how to cope with anxiety.
The workshop works great in classrooms, teaching children and younger people what anxiety is, what it feels like and offering self-care and anxiety tips to take home.
Stress can be positive and motivate us to work hard and be productive but if not correctly managed it can become distress, or negative stress, and can hurt our long-term wellbeing.
Bradford District and Craven Mind’s Stress Bucket workshop by our West Yorkshire Mind Training Lead Andrea Wallman is designed to give people a different way of looking at their stress and encourage them to look at their unique coping strategies to look after their own stress.
The best way to use this recording is to play the video first and fill out the stress bucket handout after playing the video.
