Come and join us at Bear Hunt Books for a one-hour session with Dr Jo, Clinical Psychologist, in a mindfulness session designed especially for kids (their grown up can join in too!). This will be a practical session where children can learn what to do to manage the emotions that can come up when they’re facing a new year at school. It will involve some fun activities designed to help children connect with their emotions and their bodies, and will focus on skills such as mindful breathing, paying attention to their body, and using their five senses to come back to the present moment. There will be time for a story, as well as the opportunity before or after the session to explore the books available for children within the shop. This session is aimed for the younger end of the spectrum, from 4 years onwards.

Dr Jo Jury is a Clinical Psychologist with many years of experience working in a variety of different settings supporting people with their mental health and psychological wellbeing. She enjoys supporting people in developing skills like mindfulness and relaxation, and helping people shift the way that they think and feel about themselves. She is registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and has up-to-date DBS clearance that allows her to work with adults and children.

 Jo believes that reading is an amazing way to escape from reality, especially when our heads might be full of worries or we might be feeling scared or nervous. She will be joined in her session by her helper Amelie (aged 11) who has lots of experience using mindfulness and relaxation both at home and at school.
