Research indicates that when teens consistently practice mindfulness, it lowers rates of anxiety and depression, leads to better stress, stronger relationships, and increased self –awareness. Mindfulness practice can help teens/tweens find relief in the moment, while supporting their learning and growth.   The session will introduce mindfulness, along with tools to provide age-appropriate exercises. The workshop will include information regarding the neuroscience of mindfulness. You’ll leave with a toolkit for teaching children mindfulness, including ideas for addressing resistance and interventions to manage difficult moments.
