Calling all tweens and middle schoolers who are settling into a new school year.! Join Amber for this three-part workshop rooted in a loving kindness practice that aims to help tweens channel compassion toward themselves and others as they go back to school in the fall. During each session, we will ground with an affirmation practice, move through a short yoga sequence made just for tweens, and build community with a takeaway craft project. 

Session 1, Aug. 17: Glow Recipe
We’ll channel loving kindness to glow from within, with the affirmation “May I be happy and healthy.” Our yoga practice will inspire self-compassion and confidence, and after we move together we’ll make our own essential oil body spray or salve. 

Session 2, Aug. 24: Besties 
Now that we’ve practiced self-love, we’ll begin to shine compassion out toward our besties. We’ll practice partner poses and share affirmations with one another. We’ll close our time together by making friendship bracelets: one to keep, one to share.  

Session 3, Aug. 31: Squad Goals
In our last session, we’ll take all this loving kindness and really reach it out beyond ourselves and our besties. We’ll move through heart-opening poses to prepare for sharing the love, even when it’s uncomfortable. We’ll make affirmation cards to share in the hallway or the lunch room, reminding all of those around us that they matter and they deserve to glow from within, too.
