Empowered Living - Revolutionary Tools for Parents, Caregivers, & Educators

If we could say that the last couple of years has offered any "gift", it would be one of awareness and perspective.

As we round out 2021 and head into a new year, we want to focus on growth, hope, and truly creating the experiences we desire in our personal and professional lives.

So, how do we do this...? We need to show up and really apply ourselves to MAKING our life the way we want it.

Join Kerri M. Vercellini & Meghan Leighton for:

• Mindfulness practices for improved self-awareness
• Introduction to Energy Psychology practices (including EFT "tapping") to support self-care and caring for others
• Helpful "nuggets" of neuroscience related to child & teen development
• Easy to use skills and tools for healthier coping
• Exploring, understanding, and making sense of personal habits, patterns, and reactions
• Psychoeducation on emotional regulation, empathy, and problem solving skills
• Reflection and review of key resources on selected topics
