What is educational wellbeing, anyway?
Educational Wellbeing is a
holistic approach to health
in learning spaces
using positive psychology and
lifestyle medicine tools.
Holistic health is critical to educational achievement: learning cannot happen if students are not well, and equally, educators cannot teach if they’re not well.
challenging the current narrative…
Too many of our educators are burnt out.
Too many of our caregivers are struggling.
Too many of our children are suffering.
Evidence-based, trauma-informed, wellbeing-focused, neurodiversity-empowered, child-led – these can be buzz words, or they can be a way of doing.
It’s time to take a new approach to pedagogy: let’s give heart to teaching and learning. Wellbeing first, through holistic solutions and approaches in education.

Whilst the media reports awful stats on mental health, and the challenges our schools face, the stress our educators and school leaders are under… there is space for a new discussion: how to create an education model that empowers learners and educators.
Imagine a learning structure that is adaptive to different needs, that supports educator wellbeing, that prioritizes the whole child. An approach that incorporates lifestyle medicine, positive psychology, health coaching, and ultimately results in healthy, happy children achieving their goals, and educators that are passionate and not burnt out.
