Blooming Youth

**** Fact Friday ****

Ever wondered why teens can feel everything so deeply, react so quickly, or change their minds in a heartbeat?
That’s because the teenage brain is still under construction. The emotional part of the brain develops faster than the part responsible for planning, decision-making and impulse control. It’s not “bad behaviour” — it’s brain development in action.

Blooming Youth is here to help teens understand their emotions, develop tools to manage when things feel tricky, and recognise just how amazing they truly are.

I attended a really interesting webinar this morning hosted by The Witherslack Group and led by Aaron from My Dietician Clinic.
The topic was Arfid and PECA. Two eating disorders that can affect anyone but is more prevelant in people with a diagnosis of autism.

The Witherslack Group host lots of webinars about lots of different topics and their website has so much useful information. Webinars are free and open to all.
They also have a Facebook and Instagram page.

The My Dietician Clinic website has lots of articles for a whole host of eating challenges and also have an informative Instagram page.

I’m always keen to continue learning new things and will definitely book on to more webinars and have a good look at all the info on the blog.

I’m really looking forward to my first ever stall to share information about Blooming Youth at the Community directory day on Saturday.

Any tips on what makes a good stall (or what you would avoid?!)

I’m running a little competition on the day, with the chance to win a free session, so why not come along to say hello and be in with a chance to win!

An exciting Monday at Blooming Youth!
Thank you to my Brother for braving a ladder to put my sign up outside today!
The sign may be small compared to the other signs but I like to think it’s like my little business - small but mighty! 😂

My heart is happy!

To hear (and see) a young person noticing their progress over the time they have been coming to see me, is quite simply the best reason to have created Blooming Youth.

I of course don't take the credit - the praise is for the young person, who has put in the effort, pushed themselves out of their comfort zone, and has then been able to see the progress and positive results.

I feel proud 💙
