Social-Emotional Learning from the Inside Out
Copyright :
You don’t want to miss this closing keynote! Best-selling author, child psychiatrist and award-winning educator, Daniel Siegel is joined by Frank Anderson, author, psychiatrist, and therapist for a conversation on how to equip children with tools to deal with overwhelming challenges they face- with skills founded in “mindsight” and IFS parts work.
Social and emotional learning emerge from the cultivation of mindsight and greater access to self-energy–our ability to sense the mind, inside and out, and move that mental life toward integration as we honor differences and promote compassionate linkages and connections.
Take home strategies to teach kids how to differentiate and appreciate the various aspects of their states of mind, and learn how to integrate, adapt, and develop resilience when faced with overwhelming challenges in their life.
