Day 5 of the #MindfulKidsPeaceSummit is here! The theme today is Social Emotional Learning, Interacting with Others, and Positive Psychology: More Mindfulness and how Teachers and Parents Can Help.

The online international Mindful Kids Peace Summit was created by teen, Adam Avin, for other teens, to be shown in schools across the world as part of the annual curriculum. It focuses on mental health & stopping violence. 50+ experts speak about diversity, inclusion, communication, kindness, anti bullying, peace, mindfulness, positivity, social emotional learning, emotional intelligence, coping with stress, coping with emotions, coping with trauma, self-awareness, self-regulation, self-compassion, positive psychology, interaction with others, & so much more.

I got to speak with Heather Schwartz today, from the Collaborative for Academic Social Emotional Learning (CASEL), which is like the #1 organization in the country for SEL in the country. We talking about the correct definition of SEL and how teens have to use their voice to get these programs into schools so that we can learn how to cope with stress and emotions and how to interact with others. All of this helps us in the real world when we get out of school.

“SEL is how we learn to get along with people who are different from us, navigate stress, collaborate with others, understand our own emotions, the environments in which we do these things, & learning experiences that connect the head & the heart.”

“The majority of #SEL programs have some #mindfulness that include the ability to stop/take a moment. In order for us to make choices & use skills we learn, we have to be able to #pause.”
