Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about the kinds of videos me and my friends can’t stop watching. They’re not wild, dramatic, or even all that eventful.

#EduTwitter summer is your season to rest, but also reset. Try the S.U.N. Method for habit stacking:.☀️ S – Settle (fully rest).☀️ U – Uncover (what brings you clarity).☀️ N – Nest (new habits into old routines).Small shifts now = smoother starts later. #HabitStacking

We’re more connected than ever, yet loneliness is rising. WHO calls it a global public health threat. Because contact isn’t connection. It’s time to show up meaningfully. 🔗 Explore the Meaningful Attendance programme. #HumanFirst

Neurodiversity Burnout is real. It affects both students & staff, especially when they're masking, overstimulated, or unsupported. It’s not a personal failure, it’s a sign the environment needs to change. Join my training #NeurodiversityBurnout in schools.

Helpful Tips to Really R.E.S.T.:. 1. Put work apps on pause (set app limits or use Focus mode).2. Plan non-work joy: walk, book, brunch, nap, your call.3. Practice “mental shut down” rituals: a walk, journaling, or simply saying “I’m done for now”.4. Don’t fill every minute.

One small shift I encourage schools to make? Consider changing your ‘Reintegration Plan’ to a ‘Reconnection Plan’. Because we don’t just bring pupils back, we bring them in. DM me or email me to explore the Meaningful Attendance™ programme kelly@mindworkmatters.com.

For me, Meaningful Attendance means:.Being present in school not just physically, but with a sense of psychological safety, belonging, purpose, and connection. Where attendance is driven by value, not obligation.
