The ‘Peaceful Kids’ program is a Mindfulness and Positive Psychology based program to lessen anxiety and stress and increase resilience in children from Prep through to Year 12. This program helps children to build their emotional resilience, so they are better equipped to deal with the day to day stresses that life brings them. Â The Peaceful Kids program can be run in schools, organisations, hospitals and in private practice by teachers, wellbeing leaders, counsellors, psychologists, school nurses, chaplains, social workers and wellbeing practitioners.
Key Learning Objectives / Outcomes:
The Peaceful Kids Facilitator training has 2 components – ‘Peaceful Classrooms’ – Mindfulness Meditation Training for children and teens and the ‘Peaceful Kids’ – Facilitator Training. Â
Â
Once you are trained as a Peaceful Kids Facilitator, you can facilitate the 8 week Peaceful Kids intervention program (1 hour each week) for a small group of primary aged or secondary school children who are feeling anxious, stressed or who have poor resilience. This training will also enable you to offer Mindfulness sessions and strategies with children.Â
