Wellness Wednesday Committee

November 25, 2020


We are excited to partner with Peaceful Schools to bring Virtual Circles and a series of mindfulness videos  to families and caregivers!

SPACE IS LIMITED - SIGN UP TODAY!
 

Virtual Circles are a powerful tool to build community and connection in a world where we are social distancing. Virtual Circles provide a safe space to share your own experiences, feelings, and needs, and to learn from the experiences of others without judgment. 

Peaceful Schools is offering Virtual Circles for parents, guardians, and other caregivers. Each week, the 1-hour Circle will focus on a specific topic. Join us for these Virtual Circles to allow your voice to be heard. Both topics are offered at 3 different times to accommodate different schedules:

Self-care for caregivers: How we as parents, guardians, and other caregivers take care of ourselves

  • Monday, December 7 at 12:00pm or 7:00pm
  • Wednesday, December 9 at 12:00pm

Family Dynamics during COVID: How we show up for our loved ones this holiday season and throughout the pandemic 

  • Monday, December 14 at 12:00pm or 7:00pm
  • Wednesday, December 16 at 12:00pm

Coming soon... A series of 9 mindfulness videos!

In collaboration with Peaceful Schools, each video demonstrates a different mindfulness practice and includes information about how the practice impacts our brains and bodies. Videos will launch in early December at mentalhealthEDnys.org.
