Description
How can you raise children and teens who are more creative, compassionate, and resilient? Kids who will become emotionally intelligent leaders?
Dr. Leah Weiss, Stanford University, international expert in mindfulness and compassion, shares advice about what parents can do to remain mindful – and not go insane! – while navigating the ups and downs of raising kids.
Using examples from her popular course, "Leading with Mindfulness and Compassion," Dr. Weiss will lead attendees towards a calmer and more purposeful parenting path. Learn how to quiet your critical inner voice and practice greater self-compassion.
Leah Weiss, PhD, is a researcher, teacher, consultant, and author. She teaches courses on compassionate leadership at Stanford Graduate School of Business and is founding faculty for Stanford's Compassion Cultivation Program. Her acclaimed new book, How We Work, is endorsed by His Holiness, the Dalai Lama.
Parents, students, educators, and community members welcome! Spanish interpretation will be available. Free admission and light refreshments.
M-A Parent Education Series events are sponsored by M-A PTA, Sequoia Healthcare District, and Sequoia Union High School District.
