After three years of teaching online, I’m so excited to share that I’ll be teaching in-person classes starting in February!
I’ve been teaching Empowerment classes to kids for over 15 years both in and out of the education system. After working with children and youth for over 25 years, I noticed an increase in worries, fears, anxiety, and depression and a decrease in self-esteem and self-awareness. At the time there was very little in formal education that addressed these issues. We seemed to teach children about everything; except themselves.
So, it became my mission to do everything I could to help in this much-needed area. I became certified as a child meditation facilitator, took other wellness courses in this area, and began teaching! Children have always been my passion.
My classes include many different strategies, exercises, and techniques that give children and youth the tools necessary to thrive in today’s world! Some of these include: meditation, mindfulness, affirmations, and gratitude.
The classes will be 4 weeks long, with a weekly 1-hour session - the location is still to be determined. I will post some information on social media and put it on my website once confirmed. There will be links at the bottom of this blog for you to follow so you don’t miss out!
The second class I’ll be teaching is also in February. It’s a meditation class for adults! I have been teaching these classes for over 10 years! We’ll learn different meditation techniques, ways to live a more balanced, peaceful life, and (always a favorite) end each class with an Angel card!
Throughout my time teaching these classes, I’ve had many parents, teachers, and professionals ask me to provide them with some strategies they can use with kids to help support their mental and emotional well-being. That’s when I decided to put everything I know and teach into a book. That’s how my book, Empowering our Future, was born! My entire program is in there (as well as my heart and soul) and the book provides ways teachers can implement these strategies in the classroom - it would take less than 15 min/per day.
To all of you, I wish you a blessed holiday season filled with love, peace, and magic! May you find comfort in those you surround yourselves with this holiday season!!
Until next time…may love be with you!
