Mind-Body Skills with Children, Teens & Families
We are happy to announce our first specialty track at Advanced Mind-Body Medicine Training for those participants working with Children, Teens, and their Families. The program's focus will be on teaching mind-body skills in a child-friendly way with age appropriate toys and materials that enhance all developmental stages and provide understanding for the child in the attainment of new mind-body skills, stress reduction, and self awareness. For the first time, our newly developed manual for working with children and teens will be made available as a resource with plenty of ideas, worksheets, and didactic which can be used in private, group, schools, community and hospital settings. Participants will be coached in a group format as well as individual consultation on their specific situations in working with kids, teens, and families. The opportunity to lead group will be enhanced by presenting the didactic in child terms, but the group "check in" and process will be as adults so experience will be gained on all levels.
