Empowering your staff

Rise to Shine provides breath-centred health and wellbeing solutions for your entire school community. Empower your staff and leadership team with meaningful wellbeing they can actually use! Learn how to regulate the nervous system to optimise performance, whilst effectively managing stress and building resiliency,

The Forgotten Pillar of Health is an interactive workshop that encourages exploration of the science of breathing and how functional breathing can support your physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

Choose from a range of delivery styles, with both interactive workshops and practical-based options available.

Workshops include:

Regulate to Educate - The role of breathing to support and regulate the nervous system, to enhance focus, concentration, behaviour and learning in the classroom.

Supporting your staff to support your students

Bringing breathwork into the classroom is a powerful way to optimise the learning environment for the students you teach. Despite our best efforts, learning can only occur if the student is in a responsive state. Learning simple tools and implementing them daily allows the child to self-regulate whilst optimising physical, emotional and mental wellbeing.

Rise to Shine offers staff professional learning for those wishing to take the next step in implementing wellbeing strategies into their classroom.

Personal insight to teachers wellbeing

As a high-school teacher and leader for many years, I am very aware of the impact of long-term stress on our health, ability to cope and overall life satisfaction. 

Wellness is indeed a process of awareness and choice but what is commonly overlooked is that our choices and actions are dependent on how we feel physically, mentally and emotionally and before we can begin to initiate change we must first learn to pay attention to and regulate the source of our choices - the nervous system. 

I provide simple to implement tools that can be used to increase energy, balance the body and mind for focus and concentration and, calm the nervous system in preparation for deep nourishing sleep and rest. All paving the way for optimal health, wellbeing and performance.
