Anyway, those are my train journey musings.

Also, pretty much all of the longest studies on human happiness point to the fact that our close personal relationships are the strongest protective factor of our physical and mental health and the biggest contributors to our wellbeing.

It was great hosting @laurahallain.bsky.social at Broughton Community Schools today. "Don't let what you can't do stand in the way of what you can do".

Children were buzzing and so inspired!

'It's important to weave your parachute every day, rather than leaving it to the time you jump out of the plane" - Jon Kabat Zinn.

It's important we weave healthy habits into our morning routines to prepare us for the day ahead. One of mine is my dog walk.

What's one of yours? #Teachappy

This is Dash. He's 1. Today he learned what snow is. He likes snow. The end.

I delivered 2 webinars today to international teachers in the UAE, South Africa & beyond. All around the Oxford International Curriculum for Wellbeing which is aimed at students but teachers learn the principles first, try out the techniques themselves, before then teaching to children. #Wellbeing
