"Mindful Moments"

Mindful moments is a trauma-informed, mindfulness-based yoga program for children to learn strategies and tools that they can take away to use in their daily lives. This program is designed with the intention of supporting young people with building their confidence, resilience, emotional-regulation and connection to self. These classes utilize movement and breathwork while also incorporating play and art therapy to empower children to become more aware of their own responses, help them move away from reactivity and towards a more balanced engagement with the world and themselves

​

Learning about their emotions and reactions, body awareness and stress management can be a truly valuable experience for children and youth, giving them the space to develop both self-knowledge and self-esteem. In a world where young people are facing increasing pressure from various sources, offering a safe space and a means of self-care can help them cope better with stressful or challenging life events, in addition to improving their psychological well-being and growth. Each series of classes will focus on specific themes that invite young people to be curious, be aware, be present and be themselves.
