BODY & MIND CONNECTION — Supporting Children & youth Who Experience Bullying

Bullying is not only about what is said or done. It can also affect how a young person feels in their body, carries themselves, responds to others and experiences their own sense of confidence and safety.

Dr Patricia Sherwood highlights how children who experience bullying may show uncertainty, fear or vulnerability through their posture, movement, voice and responses. While the responsibility for bullying always lies with the person choosing to bully, we can also equip vulnerable children with resources that help them feel stronger, more grounded and more confident in themselves.

The Body & Mind Connection Workshop explores practical, experiential exercises that strengthen:

• Body awareness and presence
• Confidence and self-expression
• Grounding and emotional regulation
• Awareness of personal boundaries
• The ability to recognise and respond to uncomfortable situations
• A stronger connection between what we feel, think and communicate through our body

For children who have experienced bullying, these approaches can help them reconnect with a sense of agency, strength and confidence — supporting them to respond rather than becoming overwhelmed or shutting down.

And the work does not stop with those experiencing bullying.

As Dr Sherwood emphasises, children who bully also need support to develop empathy. The workshop includes experiential exercises designed to build empathy, perspective-taking and greater awareness of how our actions affect others.

Bullying needs to be addressed from multiple directions:
building empathy in those who cause harm, while strengthening confidence, agency and body–mind awareness in those who experience it.

This is one of the areas we will explore in our upcoming Body & Mind Connection Workshop with Dr Patricia Sherwood.

Join us at the workshop on 20 and 21 August 2026. We have limited seats available.

Behind every breakthrough is someone who refused to give up.

Social workers walk alongside individuals and families through some of life’s most difficult moments. They listen, advocate, encourage, and remain steadfast—even when progress is slow or unseen.

It is not an easy profession. It demands patience, resilience, compassion, and an unwavering belief in people.

Yet, it is also one of the most rewarding heart-led callings.

This clip beautifully captures that spirit. Rather than pushing for change, the social worker starts by offering something meaningful to him—something he enjoys. A small gesture that builds trust, connection and safety. Eventually, we see him step out of his room and stand by the door. For many, it may seem like a small moment. But for someone who has withdrawn from the world, it is a significant breakthrough.

It is a quiet reminder that healing often begins with relationships, not solutions.

“I’m here. I won’t give up on you until you’re ready.”

To all social workers—thank you for your tireless persistence, your compassion, and your unwavering commitment to the people you serve. You make a difference, one relationship at a time. ❤️
