Emotional & Physical Wellness for Secondary-School Girls
Youth Ripple™
Explore Move Regulate & Rest
Youth Ripple™ is a small-group programme giving girls space to understand their thoughts, emotions and changing bodies — while discovering practical tools to support themselves when life feels overwhelming.
Through guided exploration, movement, breathwork, restorative practices and Dreamscaping, girls learn ways to support both their body and emotional world — inside school and beyond.
Six girls. Six weeks. A lifetime of regulation
Every Session Supports The Whole Girl
-
EXPLORE
Guided activities and conversation help girls understand their thoughts, emotions and experiences.
-
MOVE
Simple movement and stretching help girls recognise physical tension and explore ways of releasing what the body may be holding.
-
REGULATE & REST
Breathwork, Dreamscaping and restorative positions provide practical tools for moments of stress, worry, heightened emotion or overwhelm.
Why The Youth Ripple
A different kind of hour in the school week
School. Friendships. Social media. Hormones. Expectations. Comparison. Family life. Growing up.
Teenage life can feel incredibly loud.
Youth Ripple™ creates an hour each week to slow things down.
Girls begin to understand how their thoughts, emotions and physical sensations can be connected, while learning practical ways to respond when stress, worry, anger or overwhelm begins to build.
Because understanding what you're feeling matters.
The Body Matters
Tools they can take beyond the classroom
Girls spend much of their school day sitting, thinking, listening and processing.
Youth Ripple™ gives them another way to support themselves
through their body
Across the six weeks, girls learn simple stretches, restorative positions and breathing practices they can return to when they notice tension, stress, worry, anger or overwhelm building.
A stretch when the body feels tense.
A breathing practice before something daunting.
A restorative position after a difficult day.
A pause before reacting.
The aim isn't to make difficult emotions disappear, it is to help girls discover that there are things they can do to support themselves through them.
Six Weeks Of Understanding Yourself
WEEK ONE
Self-Awareness, Thoughts & Our Monkey Mind
Noticing emotions, understanding busy thoughts and beginning to separate “what I'm thinking” from “who I am.”
WEEK FOUR
Nourishing & Resting Our Energy
Exploring sleep, nourishment, hydration, movement and rest — and how they can support physical and emotional wellbeing.
WEEK TWO
Emotions & The Mind–Body Connection
Exploring how thoughts, emotions and physical sensations interact and what can happen in the body when feelings become big.
WEEK FIVE
Expression, Anger & Communication
Understanding difficult emotions, discovering what may sit beneath anger and practising healthier ways to communicate and ask for support.
WEEK THREE
Hormones, Self-Care & The You Beneath Your Emotions
Understanding changing emotions and hormones while exploring compassionate, everyday self-care.
WEEK SIX
Vision Your Future Self
Recognising strengths, reflecting on what has been learned and looking towards the person and life each girl would like to continue growing into.
Tools That Leave The Room With Them
-
THE SESSION ENDS. THE TOOLS DON'T.
Over six weeks, girls build a simple toolkit of movement, breathing, restorative practices, emotional awareness and compassionate self-talk that they can begin exploring independently.
Before an exam.
After an argument.
When thoughts won't slow down.
When the body feels tense.
When anger rises.
When life simply feels like too much.
Small tools for real moments in real life.
It's about what she learns to take with her.
-
SMALL BY DESIGN
Youth Ripple™ is delivered to groups of up to six secondary-school girls, selected by the school based on who they feel may benefit.
The small-group environment creates space for individual attention and a quieter, less exposed experience.
Girls participate at their own pace.
There is never an expectation to disclose personal experiences in order to belong in the room.

Created & Delivered By
Gina Louise
Founder · A State of Mind StudioGina created Youth Ripple™ from a simple belief:
Young people deserve the opportunity to understand themselves, not simply be told how they should feel.
Her approach brings the physical and emotional worlds together through compassionate conversation, movement, breath, restorative practices and supportive inner dialogue.
Because wellbeing isn't only something we think about.
It is something we can learn to support within our body too.
