A workshop for senior leaders at @Google today. Exploring why emotional buoyancy is more sustainable and impactful than a radically individualistic approach to resilience.

TOMORROW the wonderful young people from @PlayForProgress are launching @RefugeeWeek at the @V_and_A. Performances, workshops and the world-wide love of music. All Welcome! #RefugeeWeek #ChooseLove #LoveLoveLove #AlliesInArt

@nthnwlkr Well done man! I’m still holding your teaching, words of encouragement and belief very close to my heart. You’re awesome.

Proffesionalising the messy reality of what it is to be human, whilst arguing which professional can do it the best strikes me as strange. The capacity to create healing relationships is about the person regardless of the profession or the modality & the person they seek to help

When we come to recognise the impact of trauma on young people, there is no such thing as a “naughty child”.

CPD today with the amazing Mooli Lahad. Exploring: Resilience In The Face of Trauma: Working with Clients’ Coping Resources in Therapy.

“We need to tell stories. We are the only creatures who know the future as a concept. We know the finality of our being. We have to tell stories to cope.” - Mooli Lahad

Got any old cameras sat in your drawer? They'll be put to good use on a creative project ran by @PlayForProgress (a kick-ass London-based charity that delivers therapeutic and educational music programmes for unaccompanied minor refugees impacted by conflict).

#AlliesInArt Tremendous news!

Final thoughts from @TheSelfSpace at #StylistLive: “We always think that we’re the ones going crazy, and everyone else has their s**t together. But actually, everyone’s in the same boat.”

Important conversations taking place about what it really means to be happy with @TheSelfSpace at #StylistLive

“Striving to feel constantly happy can leave us with a real sense of failure. We think: ‘There must be something wrong with me if I can’t be happy all the time.’ ... But sometimes, by facing the darkness, we feel lighter.” @LasekSophie at #StylistLive

“Happiness is something that comes and goes like sadness, jealousy, anger and worry. Feelings are a response to the world around us. But in our culture we’re often told that happiness is something we’re supposed to feel all the time.” @LasekSophie of @theselfspace at #StylistLive

Hello from @StylistLive! We’re kicking off our Saturday with a session at the beanbag-filled Thrive Studio, where dramatherapists @ChanceJMarshall and @LasekSophie of @TheSelfSpace are sharing their tips for a happy, mindful life. #StylistLive

So excited to be spending today with Bessel van der Kolk (The Body Keeps The Score) exploring ‘Integration of Mind, Brain and Body in the Treatment of Trauma’. #Dramatherapy #CPD
