About

Hello, Hello!

Welcome and thanks for dropping in.

I have written a series of wellbeing and resilience programs for schools (SEL – Social and Emotional Learning) called “MORE than MINDFULNESS”.

My name is Leonie Stewart and I am a teacher, coach, counselor, Focusing trainer, mindfulness teacher and mother.

Mindfulness is everywhere these days. That is a good thing. My programs for schools are about “MORE than MINDFULNESS’ and that is an even better thing.

I have spent a lifetime collecting practical and powerful methods and strategies that have helped me, and will help you and your students settle yourselves in times of trouble.

Life is not always plain sailing. We all have ups and downs in our life, joys and sorrows. As a counsellor ( www.hopeandpossiblity.com.au ) I offer a safe harbour and way for my clients to anchor themselves.

As part of my counseling I share practical tools and techniques.

The MORE than MINDFULNESS (MtM) program draws on my experience and my desire to teach young people an array of life skills so they can better face life’s challenges and also savor life’s joys too.

I can and want to purposefully help younger people build their inner resources and their ability to care for themselves and others.

The MtM program will help them develop their resilience and enhance their wellbeing so they can create their own safe harbour.
