Visualization and Guided Meditation as a Tool for Emotional Regulation

Description

Visualization and Guided Meditation as a Tool for Emotional Regulation

With an ever-increasing pace in our classrooms and homes, record numbers of children are being diagnosed with anxiety and stress conditions at increasingly young ages. Medication has become a buzzword in the past few years, but what is it REALLY, and how does it benefit children? By tapping into current research in psychology, medicine, and neurology, this highly practical, 90-minute webinar examines the physiological effects of visualization and guided meditation on the nervous system and as a tool for relaxation.
