Some people find it challenging to verbalise how they are feeling and for many children they simply don’t have the developed language skills to express their worries and muddles. Using the imagination unlocks the power of metaphor in the same way that dreams help us unravel our daily problems and make sense of them subconsciously.
This course provides a sensitive and appropriate introduction to activities that will soothe and regulate the child whilst opening up opportunities for healing conversations.
This course will enable you to:
- Understand the key principles of guided imagery, meditation and mindfulness.
- Explore the impact of imagery, meditation and mindfulness.
- Understand when it would not be appropriate to use this strategy.
- Explore activities that can be used with children.
