Navigating The Heart of Childhood: Parenting the 7-14 year old.
This series of three morning talks covers the critical development of the child between the ages of 7-14 years. Understanding and supporting the development of this time is deeply supportive as we will learn why and how to place stepping stones through the waters of the rich, yet tumultuous, emotional life (the EQ) of the “tween.” Nurturing the development of the EQ has lifelong repercussions as it is the foundation for all relationships and how one emerges “feeling” about the world. Since many of us were not parented with a healthy or conscious understanding of how the “emotional body” works, this series is a gift you give to your family. Group size limited to allow time for your personal questions. Registration required.
October 8, 15, & 22 9:00-10:15 a.m.
Sliding scale $135-150 Tea and coffee provided.
Parent Coffee Circle: Looking Back to Move Forward

October 30 9:00-10:15 a.m.
Sliding scale $25-30. Tea and coffee provided.
STEPPING INTO THE HEART OF CHILDHOOD:
At the heart of childhood (between the ages of 7-14) lies the very important work of developing a healthy EQ to support mental health and social skills for life. More than ever, we are seeing the increasing need for understanding and meeting this time of development. This one-day deep dive is a journey into exploring the key components of the EQ and learning tools and activities to help create a strong foundation before the teen years arrive. Topics covered:
*Brain development of the 7-14 year old and how to support.
*The Drama Triangle: Supporting empowerment in social dynamics.
*Temperament: the lens through which a child plays on the triangle.
*Neuro-emotional tools for mental health.
*Child friendly language for stress and anxiety and language to support effective communication in the home or classroom.
*Supporting emotional resiliency.
This workshop is ideal for parents and teachers wishing to create more mindful practices for the home and classroom to meet the rising stress and anxiety we are witnessing in our younger children. Peace begins at home.

Neuro Beats Mini Morn
This very fun Mini Morn will be a playful dive into Neuro-Rhythmic movements that can be used in the home or classroom to support whole brain learning and emotional regulation. These movements are clapping, snapping, and tapping activities that open meridians, integrate the two brain hemispheres, and calm reptilian brain activity in children. They are fun, interactive, and easy to learn. Also very good for the adult brain to encourage new neuro wiring! For those of you who have attended previous workshops, these are new tools for your toolbox!
