You’ll walk away from this engaging seminar with a step-By-Step-by-step approach to integrating mindfulness and yoga to help children and teens who struggle to control their emotions, maintain attention, and control impulsive behaviour.

This framework is based on a program that was used with children in NYC schools. for Children can access the inner resources of their mind, body, and breath by learning how to help them. It’s simple, effective, and even accessible. for Those who have never practiced yoga or mindfulness before.

It’s time to help our kids move away from reactivity and toward balanced engagement with the world, both at home and at school. This seminar combines lecture, practice, reflection, and discussion to empower you to return to work with new tools and a clear understanding of how to implement them.
