This workshop will focus on how educators and helping professionals can use mindfulness with the children and youth they serve.
You will be able to use these mindfulness practices to support yourself with empathy, fatigue, burnout and your work with children.
“Children are often too busy, just like adults. They have difficulties falling asleep, are easily distracted and often feel restless. Their heads are full of thoughts. The ‘on button’ works, but the ‘pause button’ doesn’t. By bringing children into contact with mindfulness at an early age, they learn to be able to observe and concentrate better, to be in contact with their bodies, and to calm down themselves.” - Eline Snel
All sessions are FREE and will be hybrid *** (offered in person and online)
