Show Notes
This episode first aired under the original name, The Parenting Reset Show. Now we are the Single Parenting Reset podcast–supporting single parents of tweens and teens with real talk on screen time, communication and managing behavior.
Want your tween or teen to have a tool they can use anytime to manage stress and feel more grounded?
In this episode, Tess Connolly, LCSW, talks with certified mindfulness instructor Mark Stefanski and Georgia Brown, a teen who’s been practicing mindfulness for two years, about what mindfulness is, how to get kids interested in it, and why modelling the practice is more powerful than pushing it. Mark opens with a guided mindfulness exercise, Georgia shares her real-life experience of how mindfulness has helped her manage challenges, and together they explore the benefits of practicing in community, whether in person or online.
