In
the Classroom, a new focus on quieting the mind
By PATRICIA LEIGH BROWN
Reviews:
Teacher - "Your program is so appreciated by our class,
especially with the level of chaos our students experience outside
of school. It was great to give them a 'taste' of peacefulness
which we all know comes from inside."
Student - "It really helps you focus and be concentrating
on your body, mind and breathing. It really makes me calm down
easier now than how I used to be."
Student - "When I am doing Wellness Works it makes me feel
better about my situation. I use these techniques, such as taking
time to breathe rather than acting on impulse, to make better
decisions."
Student - "I think Wellness Works is one of the best programs
offered. Wherever we are, we can do these exercises when we are
stressed."
