• Parenting for Brain Health Lunch & Learn

  <p>Brain Health for all children is essential. &nbsp;Each and every day, as parents, you impact your child’s brain health in a variety of ways. &nbsp;Focusing on the social and emotional needs of your child will help them become successful in all settings they encounter. In this training we will identify the functions of behavior, understand the functions of problem behaviors, and identify interventions or replacement behaviors to change the problem behaviors. Having age appropriate strategies for dealing with day to day struggles will show you how to cultivate healthy emotional development that will integrate your child’s brain and foster essential growth. </p> 2022-05-10 13:00:00 -0500

• This Ability-Holistic Dance

  <p>Jhe and Jenni both live with bilateral disabilities and chronic pain and have decided to entitle this form of movement “This Ability’’ as opposed to the term disability. We want to encourage all peoples, especially those who may be in mental and physical pain, to trust themselves through non-judgmental movement using the vehicle of sacred geometry.</p><p>The five elements, including their geometric shapes, are:</p><p>- Earth- Cube</p><p>- Water-Icosahedron</p><p>- Air-Octahedron</p><p>- Fire-Tetrahedron</p><p>- Ether-Dodecahedron</p><p>We will be creating a safe space for people of all ages and experiences to be held in community movement and exploration, regardless of their current mental or mobility struggles.</p> 2022-04-15 14:00:00 -0500
