Mind Journeys is exactly what the name implies. It is the process of leading children through journeys of the mind to improve their ability to visualise, imagine, comprehend, concentrate and write coherently and creatively.

We find that the regular use of visualisations enhances concentration and the ability to focus. This increased concentration leads to deeper comprehension as the children formulate images and manage to thoughtfully consider information related to the topics they are learning.

Within this book, Victoria has provided 40 visualisations for you to try. Each one is a complete unit of work.  Worksheets are also provided. There are various categories provided for these visualisations:

• Emotional intelligence to promote self-understanding and self-esteem
• Loving Literacy
• Celebrations and special days
• Our Wonderful World
• Flights of Imagination

This book gives you:

• The philosophy behind the approach.
• Steps to implementing the strategy with children from 5-15 yrs.
• Ways to relax children and get them ready for visualisations.
• 40 visualisations divided into sections: Emotional Intelligence, Loving Literacy, Celebrations, Our Wonderful World and Flights of Imagination Section.
• Tips for writing your own visualisations.
• Fully scripted.
• Suggested follow-up activities and associated worksheets.
