Happiness Hour

Picture
Friday, January 13
5 to 6:30 p.m.

Join us at Yoga Barn to learn healthy coping skills, breathing and meditation techniques, and key yoga poses. Bring your own yoga mat, if possible. Middle school through adults!

Why?

We believe in fostering dialog through teaching and learning: from each other, but also from the experts. A sampling of recent events includes:
  • Workshops on fostering resilience and healthy coping skills, featuring adolescent development expert Kenneth Ginsburg, M.D., M.S.Ed., FAAP  
  • Pathways Music Fest, in partnership with Anne Arundel Medical Center Foundation: a safe and fun Friday night offering for middle schoolers
  • Playshop, with Jeff and Lee Franklin: a workshop exploring the benefits of imaginative play on healthy brain development
  • ​Challenge Success survey at Severna Park Middle School, a tool that is designed to help schools make data-driven decisions to improve student well-being and engagement in learning.
  • Our kick-off event was a well-attended panel discussion of clergy, coaches and community members.
