Emotional Fitness 101: Toolkit for Daily Emotional Challenges

1.5 CPDs, 55:35

"Emotional Fitness 101: Toolkit for Daily Emotional Challenges" is an enriching workshop that builds upon the foundation laid by the emotional first aid kit. While the emotional kit serves as a vital resource for addressing emotional injuries in the classroom, recess, or at home, "Emotional Fitness" takes it a step further by equipping children with the mindset habits needed to prevent such injuries altogether. This workshop targets the primary drivers of behavior, fostering the development of a growth mindset, an unshakable sense of self, and an unbreakable sense of connection while promoting kindness and inclusivity. Educators will learn valuable techniques to coach students in rewiring their mindset, reframing mistakes, eliminating limiting beliefs, overcoming negativity bias, and maintaining a powerful state of mind from within. Empower grade-school students to navigate life's challenges with strength and grace!
