Youth Hub: Exploring Mindfulness Through Art with Michelle Bancroft

About this event

Teens (13-17). Join us for Mindfulness Through Art with Michelle Bancroft! Explore simple mindfulness tools that can help with stress, anxiety, and feeling overwhelmed. Create your own Mindfulness Jar to see what the mind can feel like when thoughts are racing and learn easy breathing and grounding techniques that can help bring a sense of calm and focus. You'll also take part in a colouring activity that helps you identify where emotions show up in your body and discover how mindfulness can help you feel more present, balanced, and connected. No art skills or mindfulness experience needed, just come ready to relax, create, and try something new! This workshop is part of the Teen Social Health and Wellness programming. Generously supported by The Estate of Claudia Krawchuk. This program is part of Youth Hub service. Youth Hubs are a welcoming place for teens after school and in the summer, where helpful staff are always available. Free, nutritious snacks are offered daily.
