Case Study: Resilience Transformed Through Lumi Nova

Ruby (aged 10) faced difficulties that “affected her everyday life.” Her parents found they had to “work around the issues” as Ruby struggled when things “didn’t quite go according to plan.” This reached a breaking point during the pandemic:

• School Impact: “School worries escalated… she had quite a few days off. It took Ruby a lot of strength to accept it for how it is.”
• Daily Pressure: “Leaving for school in the morning could be very difficult… she had a tendency to put a lot of pressure on herself.”

Faced with these hurdles, Ruby used Lumi Nova to build her courage. Her mother, Marie, noted a significant shift in Ruby’s mindset:

“It was nice to see her determination… and her thinking ‘I don’t want this to rule my life any more’ as she worked her way through her first goal.”

Just eight weeks after starting Lumi Nova, the transformation has been profound for both Ruby and her family:

• Life-Long Skills: “I noticed a huge change in how she deals with things. She will link back what she has learned from playing the game to being able to deal with life’s little annoyances in a much better way.”
• Parental Understanding: “Certain anxieties she struggled with before have significantly reduced… Ruby is better able to cope with those feelings by herself and as a parent I have been able to take a step back.”
• Empowered Outlook: Ruby reflects, “I didn’t think I would be able to overcome my fear, but I think I have! It’s helped me feel like if I do have another fear then I can easily overcome it by setting myself challenges.”
• Lumi Nova provided a breakthrough. As Marie summarises: “I don’t think we, or she, would have worked on these things without the game. It has really transformed Ruby’s life and our life.”
