Looking After Our Health and Wellbeing
These are worrying and uncertain times. The coronavirus outbreak has changed daily life for us all in Scotland and has had a real impact on how many of us are feeling. It's ok to not feel yourself right now. On this page we have included some things that might help our pupils in these unsettling times.

​Mental Health Matters​:
​Looking after our mental health is not something we should just do if we are struggling, or feeling low, anxious or stressed. It's actually something we should think about all the time and really invest in, just like with our physical health. Having good mental health can help us sleep better, feel better, enable us to do the things we want to do, and help us have more positive relationships with those around us. We do not need to wait until we're struggling. This Mental Health Foundation ​link provides support and advice on lots of issues surrounding mental health including issues directly related to the coronavirus lockdown.

The Headspace App:
​During this crisis, it has become even more important to look after our wellbeing. Headspace is there to give you the tools and resources to look after your mind. Pupils can access this for free using the school username and password. If you have forgotten them just ask in your PSC Microsoft Team. 
​

​Mindfulness Meditation:
This is a mental training practice that teaches you to slow down racing thoughts, let go of negativity, and calm both your mind and body. This could be done individually or the whole family could take part. The 3 audio files to the right are guided mindfulness meditations.

​Many of our pupils have discovered the therapeutic value in being creative.
​The following website offers free art lessons:

The Arty Factory:​
The Arty Factory's free art lessons share the knowledge and understanding of art and design to improve your artistic skills and to increase your enjoyment in creating artworks. Their lessons explore a variety of drawing, painting and design techniques across a range of subjects and styles.
​

The Benefits of Reading:
​Reading on a regular basis improves our literacy skills but research also suggests that reading for 30 minutes a week increases health and wellbeing. Audible offers a huge selection of audio books and can be listened to from your tablet, phone or PC. They have a selection of books for children which are free to listen to. 

We Would Love to Have You Visit Soon!
