PROGRAM
Well-I-AM Boys – an 8 week emotional wellbeing program for boys, facilitated by Well Education

INFO
There are 5 core areas of wellbeing that are taught over the 8 weeks, including:

1. Confidence
2. Resilience
3. Self-worth
4. Nutrition
5. Physical activity

These core areas will assist your son to build confidence, resilience and self-worth, enabling him to identify and admire the unique characteristics that make him so wonderfully awesome and valuable, while also providing the knowledge and guidance to make smart nutritional choices and develop positive physical activity habits.

There is a focus on controlling emotions, including anger, and reactions to emotions, including physical reactions. There is also a focus on relationships and plenty of education about the negative emotional effects of gaming and device overuse.

Weekly sessions integrate mindfulness practices and physical activities to further develop self-awareness, coping strategies and physical wellbeing. Movement and stretching is utilised to encourage the boys to slow down and nurture their bodies. Many boys focus their physical energy on strength and endurance, not understanding the vital role stretching plays in both their mind and body.

Well-I-AM is an intimate program, enabling the lessons to be personalised for the specific needs of your son.
