I know that sounds incredible, but it's true. I'm so thrilled to finally share this with you.
The Connect Curriculum is now completely free.
Why?
Because the incredible team in the UK who turned DNA-V into a school curriculum, and then tested it with solid research, believe that psychological flexibility ought to be open and accessible to all kids. The group want to change the world and invest in the future of our children, and now it is urgent!
What is it?
Connect is a DNA-V-based wellbeing curriculum designed for children aged 4 to 11 years.
It gives teachers and professionals over 250 lessons in the psychological skills that matter most: how to use and harness their sensory awareness, how to explore and grow through experience, how to use their thoughts and cognitive powers wisely, and how to live in line with what matters most to them and people around them.
In one of the largest RCTs conducted on psychological flexibility in children, we saw that Connect works. Just 18 lessons of Connect can significantly improve children's well-being. Linked below are peer-reviewed, large-scale randomised control trials*.
It works.
Connect helps children learn to be flexible, resilient, and psychologically strong from the very beginning of school.
What I love about this is that we have a program that meets children where they are developmentally. DNA-V makes it possible to bring ACT-based flexibility skills to young people in ways that are genuinely engaging and age-appropriate. Easy lessons for teachers and staff - all laid out and ready to roll. No long abstract exercises, just real, meaningful learning woven into everyday classroom life.
Whether you're a teacher, school counsellor, or clinician working with children, I'd love for you to explore what Connect has to offer.
Pass it on to anyone you think could use it.
