Invitation for this workshop:

“The Power of Feelings: Parenting with Emotional Intelligence”

Help your children recognize and use emotions to increase self-awareness and compassion

What are emotions? How can I help my child handle feelings in a healthy way? Is there really such a thing as emotional intelligence that can help?

In a fun and thought-provoking workshop, you will learn about emotional literacy — the ABCs of emotional intelligence (or “EQ”). You’ll go home with:

  • Three important tools you can use in your family to increase emotional intelligence.
  • New insight into the meaning for feelings.
  • A powerful process for managing emotional outbursts.

Most of all, you will learn more about how to use your emotions as a positive, helpful source of energy and information and then to share this understanding with your family. This workshop curriculum comes from an organization called “Six Seconds,” the leading international organization on how to teach EQ (see www.6seconds.org to learn more about for family, work, and school). Since emotional intelligence increases health, success, and strong relationships, these are skills every family can use!
