Summer Workshops

WHAT:  This Workshop is for teens entering 9th-12th grade who may feel anxious or stressed by social media platforms.  Sometimes they don’t even realize they can feel emotional or physical effects from constant interaction with their devices.  Learning how to have a healthier relationship with technology will help balance life’s ups and downs. 

The first hour will be similar to a coaching session with interactive questions and discussions.  In a coaching relationship the coach’s job is to empower the student to find what solutions are best for them.  We will be using real time surveys that will ask what emotions come up when engaging in social media.  Then we will explore different strategies and tools to help in the moment.  Real-time surveys provide a way for teens to share their thoughts—especially those who may feel uncomfortable speaking up in person.

The second hour they will build resilience and learn about the laws of attraction by setting intentions and learning how to quiet the mind. We’ll use music set to specific frequencies, similar to the calming background music you often hear in a spa.  They can sit in a chair, or on the floor on a yoga mat, whichever is more comfortable for them.  This practice helps with clarity, focus, creativity and relaxation.  This tool helps them slow down and strengthen the connection with themselves.

The Cost is $255 for the three day Workshop

WHO: Meet Ericka Jarvis — Helping Kids Quiet their mind in a Loud World

Ericka is a mom of two teenagers with 25 years of experience helping people feel better inside and out. After running her own successful hair styling business and becoming a certified Reiki Master, she shifted her focus during the pandemic to support families struggling with stress and anxiety. She discovered the power of sound frequency meditation—not just for her own kids, but for dozens of teens who showed a 100% decrease in stress after her classes. Today, she's on a mission to bring this calming practice to kids everywhere, including in schools.

WHO: Meet Dawn Casillo — A Mom Rooted in Experience, Driven by Compassion 

As a stay-at-home mom of three for 20 years, Dawn learned just how much kids need to feel supported and truly listened too. Once her children were older, she became a private nursing assistant—but what she didn’t expect was how often she would also be helping the families of her clients. Many would open up about the stress they were under, especially around challenges with their own children. That’s when she knew she wanted to do more. She became a certified Coach to support both kids and parents during the tough moments—and to help them find more calm, connection, and confidence in the process.

What to bring: Please have your child bring a phone, tablet, iPad, or other device so they can easily access the short digital surveys during the workshop. Kids are welcome to bring a water bottle, yoga mat, pillow, or blanket if they prefer to relax on the floor while listening to the music. Chairs will also be available for those who would rather sit.
