Welcome to the PLS Family Link
At Positive Living Skills we believe that every child has the capacity to reach his or her own unique potential and that every child in today’s world must learn proactive and practical ways to look after their own mental wellbeing.
When children can learn to become aware of their emotions, thoughts and behaviours, and learn how they are linked, they can develop the self-awareness to understand how they respond to stressors and they can learn practical skills that will help them to self-calm when they choose to, or self-motivate or self-direct when they choose to, and then build long term memory for these skills.
