Does your child get flooded + overwhelmed by their feelings?
Sensitivity is a gift for some children but it can also be a huge obstacle for them to overcome when those big feelings come crashing down. Sensitive children at their core are gentle, kind and caring but this also means they can attract mean friends. Learning how to protect their sensitivity and who it is safe to share it with helps.

What happens when it all gets too much?

Smiley gives you some quick and easy coaching techniques and practical tasks for easing you out of overwhelm.

Week 13 Creativity
You can’t solve a problem with the mind that created it!
In this super fun class we talk about how we can use creativity to approach problems and obstacles differently. We then get all creative – so you’ll need your pens and journal – with a simple drawing exercise. This reveals our personal qualities and strengths which come in handy when we are in a tricky situation. We sometimes forget they are there, so this is very empowering. Imagine leaving the class knowing that you can handle the tricky stuff and you always have a choice! Wow!

Week 14 Mistakes
I’ve learnt so much from all the mistakes I’ve made, I’m thinking of making a few more!
In this super fun class Smiley takes you on a journey to transform the uncomfortable feelings of frustration, shame, guilt or embarrassment that can be sparked when we make a mistake. It’s very empowering for all of us to know that making mistakes is part of our learning as human beings and if we aren’t making mistakes, then we are quite possibly not living our life to our full potential.
Life isn’t about being perfect. As long as we keep showing up and being open to learn, we are doing our very best and that is good enough.

Week 15 Sensitivity
Sensitivity is a Gift!
Not many people know that and so there is nothing better, when you are a sensitive soul, than getting validation that the way you are is perfectly OK. Lots of us grow up tuning out from our feelings because we are teased for being sensitive or we think there is something wrong with us. Not at all. In this fun class, you will find out how to see your sensitivity in a positive way and some Super Smiley Tips so you can make it work for you.

Week 16 Kindness
Always be Kind
In life, we will meet people who are unkind. We can’t rid the world of meanies, but we can learn how to deal with them. We may also be hard on ourselves and say unkind things when life doesn’t go according to plan. Learning self compassion at such a young age is super important because the way we treat ourselves shows other people how they can treat us.

Week 17 Being Alone
Being alone isn’t the same as feeling lonely
It’s healthy for us to grow up appreciating our own company and being comfortable in our own skin. In this class we learn the importance of ‘quiet time’ and talk about what might stop us from wanting to be by ourselves. This class is good if your child has separation anxiety or finds it hard to be away from home.

Week 18 Guilt
Guilt motivates us to change, but when does it become unhealthy?
Bye bye guilt trippers and hello to healthy guilt – the type which motivates us to change. No need to prolong the agony of your misdemeanors, beat yourself up or be overly responsible for other people’s stuff. Simply learn the lesson, forgive yourself and let it go. Wow! What a liberating class that was!

Week 19 Respect
Respect is believing you are worthy of being treated well
Does your child struggle with friendships? Does your child pick meanies who want to pick arguments? Is your child the odd one out or the 3rd wheel in another friendship drama? Children who don’t respect themselves are drawn to these types of relationships.
Relationships reflect back to us how we see ourselves, so when we don’t respect ourselves we will also gravitate towards or unconsciously choose friendships which are a mirror of our self image. In this super fun creative class we explore respect in more detail through drawing and talking.

Week 20 Patience
Patience is a learned skill and needs practice
How good are you and your child at waiting? Taking turns, waiting for others to finish talking, long car journeys, learning something new? This is a great life skill and comes in handy when it comes to your feelings too.
Do you act on your feelings (react) or sit with your uncomfortable feelings so you can respond? This class will teach you how to start out small and take your time every day. There is no rush. It’s not a race. That’s hard when the rest of the world seems to be operating at 150 mph!

Week 21 Gratitude
Great for Worry Warts, Glass Half Fullers and Highly Critical people
Lost of us have a tendency don’t we, to notice what is wrong, what’s missing or what we can’t change? This is because our brain wants to keep us safe. Yet sometimes, there is nothing to fear. This means we’re living in the future or in the past but not truly appreciate what is going on around us in the moment. In this class we see that switching our thinking and creating a daily gratitude habit can make us feel instantly better. Our energy is less fearful. It also helps us to see the good in each other.

Week 22 Mindfulness
What is mindfulness?
“Mindfulness is a mental state achieved by focusing one’s awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one’s feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique.”
This class teaches you baby steps which you can take every day to help you being more present so that your emotions don’t take control of your body. We talked about mindfully eating and locking the door or driving to places. We’re on auto pilot so much of time and don’t even know it.
