Mary Beth Colliins posted:COA Awareness Week is coming up in February and we will be focusing on mindfulness tools and its restorative impact. Can anyone provide exercises/programs available for schools, afterschool activities, or in the community designed for kids/teens. We wish to create a healthy array of resourcesto make available during the week.
Thank you for anything you can provide.
I lead the REACH Program in Stewartville, MN and did 6 months of training with Mayo Clinic Dr. Sood's Resilient Living Program stressfree.org The pillars of this program focus on gratitude, compassion, acceptance, meaning, forgiveness, celebration, kind attention, joyful attention, and relationships. I have modified these to use with students in grades 7-12, but have used them with students as young as 3rd grade. These pillars really all go together. Take a look at the REACH Stewartville page and feel free to use anything you see there. This page is open to the public, so you do not need to be a member of FB to view it. www.facebook.com/reachstewartville
