WHY CALM MIND HUB?

Building confidence, self-esteem & resilience in our children.

Calm Mind Hub was founded through a need of support for my own child. He is a lovely boy but I could see that his lack in confidence and ability to regulate and work through his emotions were starting to hold him back from trying new things, making friends and sticking at things he enjoyed.

He lacked the skills to work through the strong feelings he had as well as the emotions he absorbed from others (the joy of being an empath) and it was leading to many ups and downs for him.

As a parent I wanted to fix this for him but the more we spoke about tools he could use to help himself the less tools he used.

He joined a group in the UK through his school that helped him with strategies and tools (which were the same as I was talking to him about) I saw great improvements in not only his confidence but also his friendships and dealing with his emotions.

The magic was in the group of like minded kids and leader who knew so much more than mum!

I am now that support person for you and your family, the one that your child believes has the answers (even when you have told them the exact same thing – we have all been there). The group is there as support in the knowledge that your child is not the only one experiencing whatever is happening. These 2 things put together are MAGIC!!

That little boy who lacked confidence grew up to be the Vice Captain of his Primary School. This stuff works, even if they don’t realise it at the time.

Everyone is accepted here

As parents, we spend our whole lives doing everything we can to raise our children to be happy, confident and strong. We protect them, nurture them, encourage them and support them. We help them to believe in themselves and be proud of who they are. We love them more than anything and do everything we can to give them the best start to life.

Then just when we think we can take a breath, we notice something is different. We notice they’re not smiling as much as they use to. We see their confidence has started to fall. We notice them withdrawing from things they love and having troubles with friends and school. We hear them become negative about themeless and judgemental of others. And for some of us, we notice as they go quiet. Very quiet.

At Calm Mind Hub we are the support system for both children and parents. We are the place to turn to when you don’t know where to go. Since 2018, Calm Mind Hub has been supporting and empowering hundreds of children, teenager and parents through face to face programs. We are the shoulder for you to lean on and the community of support you and your family are looking for.

Our Standing Strong programs take a non-clinical and holistic approach to health and wellbeing. Through our evidence based programs, children not only learn how to improve confidence, self esteem and resilience, they also feel uplifted and empowered by a culture of kindness and support.

Helping our children embrace their individuality

As children get older they want to be more like their peers and may decide to change their likes and dislikes to suit the group they are in rather than being true to themselves and allowing them self to be different to the people around them

Individuality is an important part of embracing who we are and being true to ourselves. It is not always easy. There are some things we can do to help us with individuality.

Helping our children choose happiness

Happiness is something we are led to believe we should feel all the time in order to be doing life ‘right.’ The problem is happiness is not always so easy to achieve when we put this much pressure on it. A lot of the time, we don’t realise that happiness can come in the form of simple pleasures, rather than the bigger and more expensive things in life. It’s important to remember that happiness comes and goes and that all our emotions are healthy to feel.

Exploring Gratitude

Expressing gratitude has been shown to increase our happiness levels and reduce stress and anxiety. Thinking about the wonderful things in our lives is a great daily ritual which we can all benefit from. It can help us to appreciate what we have and stop focusing on what we don’t have. Below are our top tips for helping you bring more gratitude into your life.
