Hi there! I'm Emma, mum to 2 gorgeous children and lover of all things mindfulness. My journey to establishing the brand Mind Blossom & Bloom and creating
My Mindful Box has been a wholly organic process...
After graduating with a psychology degree, I completed my PGCE and started my professional life as a primary school teacher. I absolutely adore teaching and love the buzz of the classroom, filled with curious minds and big imaginations. Shaping young minds and helping children to learn is such an honour but beyond that, for me, equipping children from a young age to understand and navigate their emotions is such an important part of their education.
Whilst teaching, I trained as a mindfulness coach and was able to integrate mindful techniques into daily classroom life. The children (and fellow teachers) loved starting the day with affirmations and using various mindful tools to support emotional well-being.
Mindfulness with children works because children are naturally mindful. It was clear to see through teaching mindfulness and using mindful tools that children were able to: increase their sense of well-being, notice their emotions, increase their focus and it enabled them to be more compassionate towards themselves and those around them.
Seeing the benefits first-hand with the children in the classroom, I started to run independent children's mindfulness sessions. My passion for creativity (my own outlet for mindfulness) sparked an idea to develop mindful products and tools for my own children and from there, the idea for Mind Blossom & Bloom was born.
Our Affirmation/Activity cards have been extremely popular and have received some wonderful reviews from parents and children alike (you can purchase these from the shop and see a handful of the reviews).
My Mindful Box is the latest creation, and the idea is simple: a monthly Mindfulness subscription for children, equipping them with vital mindful tools to enhance their emotional well-being. Through purposeful activities, your children are able to build their own 'toolkit' which will support them through childhood - and beyond. I hope your children enjoy the boxes as much as I have loved creating them. My wish, is for the magic of mindfulness to be shared, spread and accessible to all. Children and their emotional well-being for us as parents is the priority and I would love to be a part of helping them on that journey.
