Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 05/05/2025I often wonder how people can follow and / or be complicit in the face of cruelty. @suzannezeedyk.bsky.social breaks it down for us in this fascinating thread. "He needed less than 30 seconds to turn young men & women into collaborators - to make them complicit in his humiliation...& meanness." 012

One of the spontaneous moments was when Karen said, excitedly: "Our next bookgroup is reading this one by Sarah Lathan." I snapped a photo & said I would be glad to share widely their enthusiasm for Sarah's insights on relational practice. 032

Reposted by Lynburn NurtureSuzanne Zeedyk @suzannezeedyk.bsky.social · 23/04/2025Staff in Fife have done the most remarkable things with the information gained in their #DaringVentures Course during 2024 & 2025. Today is the last Cafe, where we get more insights into how they have applied it. I can't wait! @lynburnnurture.bsky.social 011
Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 23/04/2025Todays #DaringVentures café was a busy one. "What if we got rid of the blame & got curious about the needs of the children, teachers, & parents?" Imagine a world where we got rid of blame? This is what we are working towards in Fife. @suzannezeedyk.bsky.social 000
Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 17/03/2025Great article this week by @pperry.bsky.social imposter syndrome, anxiety, inner narratives and "the liking gap" (a new one for me). Fascinating read. 020

Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 10/03/2025I've been doing HeartMath every day for 100 days, here is what I have noticed: * Improved memory and focus * Improved emotional resilience * Increase in ability to regulate during moments of stress * Improved relationships * Feeling of being at ease in my own body @anam-alba.bsky.social 000
Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 10/03/2025I tried out the HeartMath boardgame "Wild Ride to the Heart" today with an older pupil, then a younger pupil. It was enjoyed by both. A fun way to open up discussions about emotions @anam-alba.bsky.social 000
Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 08/03/2025We celebrated the official opening of our Kit Bag themed room. There has been a lot of hard work from our talented PSA, Mrs Lang who drew and painted each animal by hand. A beautiful space for our children. 100
Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 05/03/2025It was a beautiful mindfulness session this evening. Today, we looked at journaling and setting intentions. What's seeds do we want to grow, and how can we create the right conditions. Thank you for your wisdom @lizcain.bsky.social 020
Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 05/03/2025Play is therapeutic, it's relational, regulatory, involves communication and cooperation, and boosts emotional wellbeing. It's a fundamental part of childhood. It was so beautiful to hear the interactions between these two pupils. 020
Reposted by Lynburn NurtureSuzanne Zeedyk @suzannezeedyk.bsky.social · 05/03/2025The impact of the #DaringVentures Course in Fife has been most remarkable. The creativity of attendees in rippling this information out to others and their willingness to weave it into their own lives. I find the stories emerging to be remarkable. 031
Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 05/03/2025"Relational concepts help us on a professional, but we are also living and breathing people. Understanding how relationships work affects us on a personal level." There is something so profound about the work we are undertaking. #DaringVentures @suzannezeedyk.bsky.social 030

Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 01/02/2025I really enjoyed this podcast. Suzanne and Matthew have a great energy. The Traitors fits so well with the relational dynamics of #DaringVentures 021
Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 27/01/2025We have repurposed a dull room to create a functional nurture space for exploring Kit Bag. Designed and painted by the hand of a very talented PSA (Mrs Lang). We can't wait to get children timetabled into this room and make use of this beautiful room. #KitBag #Nurture 010
Reposted by Lynburn NurtureSuzanne Zeedyk @suzannezeedyk.bsky.social · 23/01/2025We talked about this story at yesterdy's #DaringVentures session in Fife.

We predicted the Bishop would not apologise. @lynburnnurture.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...theguardian.comBishop who angered Trump with call for mercy says she will not apologizeMariann Edgar Budde defends sermon asking president to show compassion to immigrants and LGBTQ+ people 063

Reposted by Lynburn NurtureSuzanne Zeedyk @suzannezeedyk.bsky.social · 21/01/2025Here is the dance I showed. Note how the two parties each keep their frame. They support each other. It keeps the right amount of distance between them, so that they can move with ease & grace together. Emotional boundaries are the same. #DaringVentures www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDHX... 011
Lynburn Nurture @lynburnnurture.bsky.social · 21/01/2025"If your boundaries are too rigid, you're not responsive to others. If your boundaries are too loose, you're not responsive to yourself." @suzannezeedyk.bsky.social used the analogy of dancing (specifically Kate Silverton dancing on Strictly ) to talk about emotional boundaries. 110

Reposted by Lynburn NurtureSuzanne Zeedyk @suzannezeedyk.bsky.social · 20/01/2025See all those symbols, draped across her body? They signal 'belonging' to the brain. Belonging makes a person feel braver, more self-assured, more confident. It moves you away from doubt. Doubt is an uncomfortable feeling.
