Big Heart, Little Minds

Since October 2019, BHLM has ran a weekly class for preschoolers supporting their emotional development and positively impacting the future of their mental health. In this class, they are taught:

• Take a Breath
• Emotion Awareness
• Use our Senses
• Being Kind

Which includes activities to support a growth mindset, executive function skills and calming strategies for distressing emotions.

When the pandemic hit in March 2020, we took our classes online and won #SBS. Since then, we have launched a resource store, training, workshops. more classes and free support groups.

The goal? To educate, inform, target social inclusion, mental well-being and better the mental health of all.

Statutory services cannot cope with the overwhelming need required by then to support our children, young people & families.

We believe that teaching these vital life skills and informing of what happens in the brain and why, is enough to early intervene on serious mental health concerns later in life.
