Many caregivers wonder how to help young children deal skillfully with their difficult feelings and treat themselves with kindness. Each child is unique, and there’s not a one-size-fits-all approach for helping kids grow self-compassion. In this workshop, we will explore how you can customize self-compassion for particular children, including modeling, conversation, and play. You will experience many of the playful activities and metaphors that Jamie Lynn developed for her Mindfulness and Self-Compassion for Children and Caregivers (MSC-CC) program. For instance, you’ll learn how animals can be a gateway for conversations about feelings with kids, and how you can make the components of self-compassion accessible for children. You will leave equipped with effective ideas and creative exercises that will help you support yourself and the young children in your life.
Who can benefit from this workshop? Parents, grandparents, clinicians, social workers and educators of kids. The target age is caregivers of kids 6-12, but the content is also relevant for older and younger children.
