AN EMBODIED FUTURE

​

In the transitional years between 12 and 24, alarming trends in suicide rates, self-harm incidents, and feelings of isolation are on the rise. This troubling reality suggests that many young individuals are struggling to find their worth and purpose in this rapidly changing world. Instead of experiencing belonging and validation, they find themselves burdened by the weight of the culture that surrounds them...

 

Adolescence demands a supportive environment within communities. It is essential that young people are not only supported, but also accepted, understood, and gently guided through this transformative period. It is during these changing years that they begin to explore their inner selves, uncovering their unique purpose and make meaning of the world. Our role is to empower them through this process so they can find their own way to contribute positively to the world around them.

 

Imagine a place where adolescents find solace and strength amidst life's complexities. Young & Wise, a nature-inspired wellbeing program designed specifically for the needs of today's youth is this place. In our circles, young minds come together to share, learn life skills, and embark on a journey of self-discovery.

​

Our focus? Connection and listening. We guide them to tune into their bodies, each other, and the natural world, fostering a sense of belonging and wholeness. Through movement, thought, exploration, emotional understanding, and meaningful connections, we empower young people to reclaim wellness in a world that often feels overwhelming.

At Young & Wise, we're not just teaching; we're nurturing the future generation to thrive mentally, emotionally, and physically.
