Here's What Happened in January
Warren High School Teacher Inservice Training
On January 7th, Audrey Grunst hosted a workshop at Warren Township High School for teachers looking to relax, unwind and learn how to incorporate self-care into the their daily routine. The teachers explored ideas on how to "fill their cup" in small ways throughout their day so they can be energized and inspired to do what they love!
Being Resilient - A workshop for students at Vernon Hills High School
On January 17, the therapists from Simply Bee spent the day with over 1,500 VHHS students to teach them about resilience and how to increase their resiliency by learning how to self-talk through stressful moments. We want to raise resilient teens are curious, brave and trusting of their instincts.
Stand in Your Power Workshop
On January 12th, Beth Dostal and Stephanie Bersh hosted a workshop for girls to teach them friendship dynamics and how to be a leader of kindness in their friend circles. All girls experience relationship dynamics that can be hurtful at times. We help empower tweens to stand in their own power to manage relational aggression through activities such as yoga, role play, and meaningful discussion. This workshop helped tweens build empathy, a fundamental skill that all young girls can improve upon. It was a truly inspiring day!
