FAQS

Why is relaxation so important for families and schools?

Relaxation is crucial for families because it helps reduce stress, improve mental health, and strengthen familial bonds. When families and schools incorporate relaxation techniques into their routines, such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, or simply spending quality time together, they create a foundation of calmness and stability. This not only improves individual well-being but also enhances the overall harmony and resilience of the family and classroom unit.

What is Social Emotional Learning (SEL)?

Social Emotional Learning (SEL) is the process through which both children and adults acquire and effectively apply the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions. SEL fosters emotional intelligence and helps create a supportive and collaborative family environment.

How can we create habits in our family and classrooms when we are so busy?

Contrary to the myth that being busy leaves no room for new habits, even the busiest parents and teachers can establish positive routines with some strategic planning. Start small by integrating simple, manageable changes into your daily schedule, such as a 5-minute morning classroom mindfulness session or a designated "family time" in the evenings.

Consistency is key; focus on regular, small efforts rather than drastic changes. Over time, these small actions can lead to significant improvements in the well-being and connectedness of your family or classroom.
