Between school stress, extracurriculars, friend drama, and more, being a teenager is tough.
Mindfulness - pausing to experience the present moment only - is a great way to stay focused and practice dealing with one feeling at a time.
Learn how to use your creativity for mindfulness through journaling as we explore different prompts and strategies.
All supplies will be provided. Recommended for ages 13+.
