At ACMM we are proud to offer this exclusive training specifically for teaching mindfulness to children.
Training for ELC-Yr12 Educators, Allied Professionals, Meditation Teachers and Parents with Janet Etty- Leal.
Discover how to teach children Mindfulness and meditation in the way they want to learn… rather than how adults want to teach!
A unique training opportunity for educators, parents and allied professionals to establish a thorough foundation of Mindful skills and knowledge to connect to the hearts and minds of children.
This online training program provides personal support with individual and group coaching, along with two whole day training immersions for in depth discovery and connection.
In a world that is increasingly uncertain, Mindfulness education supports children to feel that they can know, trust, and believe in themselves. It provides the resources to care for their inner world and to enable healthy, kind outer connections in life.
According to a study by Beyond Blue, half of all the mental health conditions experienced in life will have started by age 14. Over 75% of mental health problems occur before the age of 25. Throughout 2020 13.9% of children aged 4 to 17 years met the criteria for a diagnosis of a mental disorder and Covid19 has exacerbated these issues.
In a fast paced, over stimulated world children need to learn skills to build awareness of their body and mind, and strategies and skills to regulate emotions, build resilience and most importantly, connect to their hearts.
For over 20 years, Janet has focused on teaching children to cultivate their ‘roots’ of awareness and ‘wings’ of creativity and joy.
The aim of the Certificate in Creative Mindful Education for Children is to bring Mindful Education to life for children with an enquiry- based approach to foster curiosity, compassion, and a holistic, creative approach to learning.
A rich journey of personal and professional discovery unfolds, supporting teacher trainees to find their authentic, unique way of teaching and nurture a deep sense of agency within each child.
Regular personal mentoring and instruction with Janet is included in the program.
Each unit features adaptations for different age groups
