Kaleidoscope

Kaleidoscope Therapy is a non-intrusive, therapeutic programme to help support good mental health in children and young people in schools, home or the workplace. 

Using colour, light, sound and natural aroma, Kaleidoscope Therapy helps people build their self-esteem and confidence.  This can lead to effective personal growth which can aid learning and improve productivity.

 Kaleidoscope is a totally experiential, yet structured therapeutic programme which utilises light, colour, sound, natural aromas and materials in order to build confidence and self-esteem in children and young people.

 The holistic method of Kaleidoscope addresses the mental health of young people. By taking away the fear of failure for short periods of time it helps people to find their own inner strength and build resilience and resourcefulness both in their self-awareness, relationships with others and their self-belief to achieve through perseverance and the willingness to take a risk and have a go.

 Using music, lights, natural aroma, colour and warmth, young people have the opportunity to: Control anxiety; Practise mindfulness; Heighten self-awareness; Experience tranquillity; Change their mind-sets and negative habits and develop positive belief systems through the following 7-Steps:
