This awe-inspiring course focuses on mindfulness and emotional intelligence. Based upon methodology first taught at Stanford University’s famed Creativity in Business Course (CIB), the 9-week program is designed to take kids and teens on a profound journey into unearthing their creativity, tapping into their purpose, and thereby activating their full potential. This interactive session will share the use of practical tools and techniques used by the CIJ Insight for Life Instructors. In this "train-the-trainer" style format, attendees will pair their own wellness and mindfulness together based on the journey used when empowering youth and walk away with: 1) creative practices when cultivating a new relationship with organizations for dealing with time management; stress; and anxiety, 2) innovative problem-solving and consistent “breakthrough thinking” to help identify solutions to complex problems, 3) improvement of communication skills that breeds self-confidence when standing up to peer pressure/bullying, and provides new access to better communicate with family and friends and 4) mindfulness tools to cultivate focus and attention for better results in academics.
