What: In partnership with PEN
Led by Kristan Childs & Teddy Kellam

In this 3-week course, we slow down and take a much deeper dive. We'll explore tolerating difficult emotions, holding gratitude amidst uncertainty, undoing aloneness, and finding purpose in these times.

We’ll use a blend of grounding practices, evocative writing prompts, heart-centered sharing, poetry, neuroscience-backed approaches, and well-curated resources to build inner capacity that supports resilience in children.

These groups offer much-needed support and connection. There will be time for honest sharing and deep listening. In addition, you will take away concrete tools to use with the children in your lives, such as grounding exercises, confidence in having hard conversations, an understanding of age-appropriate climate engagement, and a path toward picking meaningful action for your family.

You will take home:

• Skills & scripts for ongoing climate conversations with kids of all ages

• Developmental approach that meets kids by age and stage

• Ideas for family-friendly activism

• Develop a focus for your own unique path in climate action

• Neuroscience-backed practices to promote emotional resilience

• Grounding exercises to share with children

• Opportunities to metabolize climate distress and build adult resilience
