Workshop for teachers "Learning to unwind"

Blessed that I got to do this: teach a workshop on "Learning to Unwind" @bsdestempel.

It was the beginning of the ZenZone Project that the school is now building - a space where children (and teachers) can unwind.

We will see each other again in the fall for a TRE series and workshops for children.

So wonderful to see that even in schools - where our children spend so much time, where there is busy learning and living - there is a focus on a healthy nervous system.

So our children can grow up to be resilient, balanced adults who can deal with the challenges of everyday life in a healthy way.

Workshops for children & TRE series for teachers

In the workshops for children, we explored autonomic states with the kids of 1st and 2nd grade and discovered different tranquilizers to unwind. The massages were really blissful and provided a lot of relaxation!

It was a hectic but wonderful experience. And best of all? I got two big hugs from the kids!

We ended the day with a relaxing TRE session for the teachers - last session of the series, so they too could experience the benefits of deep relaxation.

So grateful to be a part of this story. Helping children and their teachers discover ways to release tension and cope with stress. This is how education is need to be!
