Top 4 Reasons Your Daughter Needs An Emotional Took Kit
Junior High Age Girls need to develop healthy ways to cope. This awesome 6 week series by Wise Girls Workshops is just the place.
Sierra Dator, MSW, LCSW and Wise Girl Workshops are proud to present a 6 week workshop series giving junior high age girls the opportunity to develop and utilize healthy ways of coping. Here are 4 amazing reasons your daughter must attend:
- Your daughter NEEDS to develop HEALTHY tools to handle emotions. Our foundation for how we handle things in life is being set now. Let's give them something solid to stand on. HEALTHY coping skills includes journaling, exercise, talking to a supportive person, affirmations, goal setting, prayer, etc.
- Parents can't do it alone. At this age and stage of your child's development, she is beginning to look to others to provide answers and advice. You may even have a child who puts down everything you say. Why not let a trained professional help her in an area where all girls could use a boost?
- UNHEALTHY coping skills can take over and cause life long problems. Keep in mind, unhealthy tools can become addictive behaviors like alcohol, drugs, sex, computers, gambling, eating issues, cutting. Let's get these girls off on the right foot for coping.
- Girls need the opportunity to be real and see real. Social media is crushing our girls in so many ways. Girls are being smothered by images of how they should look, what they should buy, who they should like, and being bullied like no other time in history. Kids have constant access to say what they want under "anonymous" posts or feeling free to say what they want behind the screen, and real girls are the casualties. In this workshop series, girls will have the opportunity to see what real girls look like, how they feel, and connect in a safe and caring environment.
