Yoga and Mindfulness Meditation for Teens

Francie KelleyLeave a Comment

We are excited to be offering a series of 4 sessions to learn yoga and mindfulness strategies to help with stress and anxiety.

 

This group is for teens, age 13 – senior in high school, with a diagnosis of celiac disease. Due to licensing requirements this program is limited to current patients of Boston Children’s Hospital. That is the doctor you see is a member of the staff of Boston Children’s Hospital.

 

The sessions are held on Saturdays; March 11th, March 25th, April 1st and April 8th. You may come to a single session, join us for all 4 or come for as many as you can. You will need to register for each session individually.

 

In addition to the yoga and mindfulness activities, this is a great way to connect with other teens living with celiac disease.

 

This group is for teens, age 13 – senior in high school. Stay tuned for additional events that will be held for other age groups including Family Wellness program for younger children and families, and programing for college age patients.

We will end the school year with an IN-PERSON story time. Author Jen Frank will read her book The Worm Family Has It’s Picture Taken, a story about being different and loving who you are.

 

We will listen to and talk about the story. We will also have time to be with our gluten-free friends in person before we take a summer break. Story time will resume in September.

 

Jen Frank is a children’s book author. She and her family have been active members of Celiac Kids Connection for many years. We are so excited to have her join us for this story time.
