Please see information on a free online Conscious Parenting Workshop running May 25th. The workshop will be hosted by the Mindful Enterprise and will include Dr Shefali, author and clinical psychologist, Jo Aitken Children and Young people’s manager SAMH, Claire Ryan-Heatley, Trauma Specialist and Gary Young Mindfulness teacher and coach.
The workshop will focus on understanding mental health and looking after ourselves, exploring old patterns and consciousness, fostering awareness of recent trauma and its impact on our families, and learning about the role mindfulness can create in developing self-awareness.
A national shortage of foster carers means that matching children and young people with carers who best suit their needs is an ongoing challenge. It’s important that foster carers have the skills, knowledge and cultural awareness to support them they so they can feel part of our community. Unaccompanied young migrants may have experienced trauma, war and poverty and we know that they often face additional challenges and need understanding in relation to the impact of racism and of growing up in a society where their culture and heritage is different.
