BOUNCE Approach®RegulationCPD CertifiedOn-DemandND-Affirming
Running Mindfulness Interventions
Explore how mindfulness techniques — including mindful breathing, guided meditation, and sensory awareness — can help children develop emotional regulation skills and cope with stress effectively.
Mindfulness supports children experiencing emotional overwhelm by teaching them to be present, non-judgmental, and accepting of their feelings. Research consistently shows that mindfulness interventions in schools can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, improve attention and concentration, and enhance overall wellbeing — giving children a genuine toolkit for managing emotional challenges rather than being overwhelmed by them.
This training gives you the practical knowledge to run mindfulness sessions with confidence — exploring how children can learn to observe their thoughts and feelings without judgement, respond thoughtfully rather than react impulsively, and build a more resilient, regulated relationship with their inner world. Grounded in The BOUNCE Approach® and aligned with evidence-based mindfulness programmes used in schools across the UK and beyond.
