Hello September

So the uniforms are washed and ironed, the pencil cases are full and summer is all but a distant memory.

Back-to-School can be a very stressful time that creates anxiety for both students and parents but what if it didn't have to be?

Fiona Brennan is a clinical hypnotherapist and psychotherapist who is also the founder of The Positive Habit platform. Over the years, Fiona has devised some very important tools to help equip families for this period of change.

The expert chats to Dermot and Dave about these techniques, explaining why the transition into 1st year in both national and secondary school is so challenging.

She discusses the 'Attachment Theory', why mindfulness is so important and why parents need to stay calm and relaxed.

Our listeners also have their questions answered.
