What kind of monster do you have living within yourself? Anxiety? Depression? ADHD? Can you embrace all parts of yourself? How important is social/emotional learning to you? What do you know about how trauma sits in the body? How do you cultivate resiliency within yourself? How do you know when your heart is open? How do you achieve focus and discipline?
Kathy Flaminio of 1000 Petals, LLC talks mindfulness and movement. Her stories paint a clear picture of what we need more of in hospitals and in our educational programs. Kathy’s vision is to revolutionize education so we are teaching to the mind, body, and heart of each student. “Hundreds of schools have changed because educators have changed,” Kathy says. Find out how a child identifies her monster within and ways she has learned to reckon with it and transcend it.
Yoga Calm® is a technique Kathy teaches to adults and children to change their lives. The depth of work is way more than poses. She describes the profound impact one-hour sessions have with those she has taught.
Kathy’s Yoga Calm® training has five guiding principles and five tools taught that integrate learning with children and adults. Alignment through attitude is a philosophy in the training. What does it mean for you, as an adult, to feel stillness? Etc.
