Presented by Shareen Ratnani, MS.Ed

Mindfulness is more than a trend—it’s a powerful way of being that can gently transform how children grow, learn, and connect. In this uplifting session, “Mindful Me,” early childhood teachers and therapists will learn to integrate simple yet impactful mindfulness practices into daily routines. Through breathwork, sensory play, movement, and imagery, you'll discover how to help young children develop emotional balance, focus, and inner calm. Learn how to create calming corners, use props that invite self-awareness, and bring mindfulness into both classrooms and homes. Walk away with practical, heart-centered strategies that build peaceful learning environments and nurture confident, resilient children—one mindful moment at a time.

This course is for Early Childhood Teachers, Therapists, and other Professionals who work with young children.
