HERE For The Kim Foundation Mindfulness and Mental Health

Mental Wellbeing Hub to help Boys, Teens and Young Men to Navigate Life with Focus and Strength

A collaboration with HERE’s team of wellbeing experts, former Sunderland player Kieron Brady, and Greg Graber,

mental performance coach to professional and collegiate athletes, Olympians and corporations.

“When negative thoughts fill your head, you can shift the story. It’s called coaching yourself up, talking to yourself the way you’d talk to a friend. Because how you speak to yourself shapes how you show up, in your friendships, your future, and your own sense of worth. Learning to coach yourself up builds inner strength, resilience, and self-awareness.”

- Greg Graber

Level Up Breathing Mental Performance Activities For Boys and Teens

Level-Up Breathing

Level Up Breathing is included in our Supporting Youth Online Activity Pack as a quick, engaging way to help young people manage stress and regain focus. This simple technique boosts emotional regulation by turning mindful breathing into a motivating challenge, perfect for building resilience in moments of overwhelm.

I Am The Line

“I Am The Line” Mindset Move shifts perspective from isolation to connection, reduces frustration and builds empathy. It can be found in our There Are No “Others” Activity Pack, created for educators and providers supporting youth with emotional growth, resilience, and connection.

Halftime Huddle Mental Performance Activity For Boys, Teens and Young Men

Halftime Huddle

This mental reset activity is a part of the “Coaching Yourself Up” Mindset Moves Activity Pack with Greg Graber, and developed to help you pause, reset, and refocus when things aren’t going to plan. Like a quick team talk, it builds self-awareness and encourages small, positive adjustments to keep going with confidence.

Activate Chill Mode

This calming, grounding activity is a part of “The Real Flex: Showing Up” Activity Pack, and encourages youth to activate their chill mode by going on a focus walk. It’s a way to calm the mind by syncing the breath with the steps, and is not about walking fast or far, but about being present in the body and letting go of distractions.

Male Mental Health: our Focus


Emerging Issues in Teen Mental Health and Wellbeing

Belonging + Identity

It has never been more vital that we support the mental wellbeing and development of the young people in our care, and we can do this by making them feel seen and heard. The best way to approach this is to make youth feel safe in order for positive action to take place.

This activity pack is here to support your communication with those in your care, and to help you explore these topical issues of safety, self-awareness and mental health.

Exam Confidence Mindfulness Support For Teens

Exam Confidence

Exam stress before, during, and after can take a serious toll on young people’s mental health. Many are speaking up about struggles with sleep loss, guilt, comparison, family pressure, and hopelessness. As a former UK Education Secretary said: “Pupils who are supported and feel a sense of belonging perform better academically.”

This pack offers accessible, creative, and trauma-sensitive mindfulness tools to help meet those needs.

Heroes of harmony, Protectors of peace

With constant headlines about global conflict and local unrest, creating a space of calm and resilience is more important than ever for our youth.

The Heroes of Harmony, Protectors of Peace Activity Pack helps children and teens navigate these challenges and empowers them to become champions of inner peace and community harmony.

School refusal + avoidance

This activity support pack is designed to help educators, providers, and families understand and respond to school refusal and emotionally based school avoidance (EBSA) in children and teens. It includes practical tools, calming strategies, and conversation starters to gently support young people experiencing anxiety, overwhelm, or disconnection from school. Grounded in emotional wellbeing and connection, the pack helps build trust, reduce distress, and encourage positive steps forward.

Testimonials From Our Partners

Our Work In The Real World

“This workshop uniquely blended family trust exercises, team building, breathing exercises, and yoga. It was remarkable to observe how each family member embraced these practices... What struck me the most was how engaged and focused everyone was throughout the workshop. Families that may have come in with different dynamics left with a stronger bond and a shared sense of purpose... The staff also greatly appreciated this workshop, which gave us invaluable tools for a more mindful and balanced life.”
