Summer is a time that almost all teens look forward to and almost all parents… well… look forward to, too. Teens often end up with a lot of “down time” which can lead to changed sleeping patterns and a change in diet, which then changes mood, etc. Though we want our teens rested, too much sleep is not always good, either.
I am writing this blog post to announce a group that I am very excited to be doing this summer. I am facilitating a group in St. Paul, MN that is called “Getting What You Want: A Group for Teens to Explore Happiness.” This group is for teens who want to better understand how to be happy.
We will watch the documentary, “Happy” during the first group session and will then focus our next five groups on the main themes that the documentary covers: Community, Movement, Defining Success, Service, Gratitude, and Self-Awareness.
We will spend one session learning Laughter Yoga… and YES, I will be participating! Group members have the option of participating in the Color Run on July 14th (they can walk it, run it, or volunteer to dump colored powder on runners!). This group is going to be a lot of fun.
Please contact me with questions or to see if a teen you know will be a good fit for my group.
See you this summer!
Megan 🙂
