Self-Compassion for Children (and Caregivers) Curriculum Teacher Training
Scroll down to apply to be a part of this teacher training program.
Life can be stressful, and as educators and caregivers we want to be able to help our children to effectively cope with adversity. Teaching children to practice self-compassion can help children (and their caregivers) to respond more effectively to life’s challenges.
Numerous research studies show that self-compassion is strongly associated with emotional well-being, coping with life challenges, lower levels of anxiety and depression, and more satisfying personal relationships. It is a gift to be able to help children develop this inner strength.
