Inside/Outside is a unique educational resource for those working
with young people of secondary school age, providing a variety of
tried-and-tested indoor and outdoor lessons and activities to
promote and embed emotional literacy. The book is divided into
three accessible sections: emotions and feelings; self and
situation; and mental health and wellbeing; which each cover a
variety of themes, from anxiety and depression, to happiness,
communication, and confidence. For each theme, ‘inside’ and
‘outside’ activities are offered, with inside activities
inspiring students to self-reflect and develop empathy for others,
and those outside drawing heavily on nature and learning outside
the classroom. The ‘outside’ activities are adaptable and have
been designed to work in any available outdoor space, and all
activities can be used either in standalone lessons or
sequentially, with introductory tasks, group activities, and circle
time discussions. With a focus on equipping students with
meaningful and tangible skills to support them in the recognition,
identification, and expression of their emotions, Inside/Outside
will be a valuable resource for teachers, youth workers,
home-educators and anyone else looking to facilitate nature
connection and introspection in children aged eleven to sixteen.

Longlisted for the 2020 Wainwright Prize 'I can't remember the last
book I read that I could say with absolute assurance would save
lives. But this one will' Chris Packham 'Fabulously direct and
truthful, filled with energy but devoid of self-pity . . . I was
impressed and enchanted. Highly recommended' Stephen Fry 'Succeeds
– triumphantly – in articulating with great honesty what it is
like to suffer with a mental illness, and in providing strategies
for coping' Mail on Sunday When Joe Harkness suffered a breakdown
in 2013, he tried all the things his doctor recommended: medication
helped, counselling was enlightening, and mindfulness grounded him.
But nothing came close to nature, particularly birds. How had he
never noticed such beauty before? Soon, every avian encounter took
him one step closer to accepting who he is. The positive change in
Joe's wellbeing was so profound that he started a blog to record
his experience. Three years later he has become a spokesperson for
the benefits of birdwatching, spreading the word everywhere from
Radio 4 to Downing Street. In this groundbreaking book filled with
practical advice, Joe explains the impact that birdwatching had on
his life, and invites the reader to discover these extraordinary
effects for themselves.
