Building resilience… one breath at a time.
The teenage years are an exciting and dramatic time of life, but they can seem like a wild rollercoaster ride. Thrilling and terrifying.
It is a time of tremendous physical and emotional growth, of huge life changes and intense academic and social pressures. It is a time too of bewildering thoughts and feelings that can seem impossible to manage. Making it worse for many teenagers, it often seems like no one understands….
It doesn’t have to be like that. The Centre for Mindfulness Studies is now offering a new introductory workshop created specifically for a teen audience.
The workshop offers:
- on-the-spot-tools teens can use to deal with daily pressures
- key skills to self-manage mood swings and
- practical methods they can use to avoid over-reacting
Participants will learn evidenced-based techniques for:
- coping with school pressures
- reducing the anxiety that comes with trying to fit in
- helping them sleep better
- making it easier to socialize and enjoy life!
