RIRO - Reaching In and Reaching Out

Liz McNaughton
Final session for RIRO. This course has been helpful by learning about resilience. It is thinking about dealing with stress and a negative mindset. We learned about stress in children and the cortesole. By reflecting on our own thoughts and experiences we learned how to have a positive outlook and engage in a growth mindset.

Things that stood out for me:

  • Difference between sympathy and empathy.
  • A thought is just a though. It has the potential to be wrong.
  • Be grateful each day.
  • Problems - do they belong to me - do I need to react to this.
  • Take time out to relax and calm myself to settle anxiety.
  • Model and discuss this with the children to help them increase their own mindset.
