Building resilience in teens is not just about toughening them up; it's about equipping them with tools to navigate life's challenges with confidence and calm.
Group sessions and mindfulness workshops offer powerful ways to nurture this resilience. In a group setting, teens find a safe space to share experiences, realise they are not alone, and develop empathy. Mindfulness teaches them to stay present and manage overwhelming emotions, which is crucial during those turbulent years.
For instance, recent sessions with teens showed how practising mindful breathing helped reduce anxiety before exams, while group discussions fostered a sense of belonging and mutual support.
This combination creates a supportive environment where teens learn coping skills, emotional regulation, and self-awareness. These are the foundations of resilience that will serve them well into adulthood.
