School Seminars
Our seminars offer a unique opportunity to guide and motivate teenagers.
Our team of professionals provide teens with essential skills that address issues common to today's youth such as social media, sexual promiscuity, pregnancy, smoking and other recreational drugs.
Our seminars help teens cope with these dangers, inspire them to make informed decisions and provide them with better tools to lead healthy lives.
SMOKING:
THE COOL THING ABOUT STOPPING
Language: English or French

Location: at the school premises

Smoking during adolescence is primarily a social activity and peer smoking is one of the strongest influences on smoking uptake, even more influential than parental smoking. Teenagers want to be perceived as ‘cool’ and be included in the peer group. They see smoking as something to share with friends.
Like adults, young people may smoke to relieve anxiety and tension, to help them feel at ease in social situations and to help them cope with everyday stress. Adolescence is a difficult time socially and emotionally for many young people and nicotine can provide temporary relief. For the same reasons, smoking is even more common in adolescents with mental illness such as depression, social phobia and conduct disorder.
Smoking is also associated with lesser academic achievement. Students who smoke are more likely to feel more negatively towards school, to miss school more often, to perform less well academically, to engage in early school misbehaviour and to drop out of school at an earlier age than non-smokers.
Our seminars can be helpful to teenagers because we make them aware of the dangers of it and provide them with powerful motivational enhancements, so that teens are encouraged to quit.
ADOLESCENT SEXUALITY
Language: English or French
Duration: 1 hour 15 minutes
Location: at the school premises
Price: This Seminar is available for €250

Sexual promiscuity among teenagers can have many adverse consequences, including risks to their physical and emotional health and unwanted pregnancies.
Sexual promiscuity can be caused by a great deal of misinformation as well as depression, low self-esteem, anger or used as a means for coping with frustration.
Although you might not be able to control your teenager, you can help by making them aware of the dangers so they can choose a better behavior.
Through our seminars, we pass the message with fun, respecting the children's individuality.
THE SOCIAL MEDIA AND INTERNET TRAP
Language: English or French
Duration: 1 hour 15 minutes
Location: at the school premises
Price: This Seminar is available for €250
(Max 25 students)
There’s no question kids are missing out on very critical social skills. In a way, texting and online communicating—it’s not like it creates a nonverbal learning disability, but it puts everybody in a nonverbal disabled context, where body language, facial expression, and even the smallest kinds of vocal reactions are rendered invisible.
A survey conducted by the Royal Society for Public Health asked 14-24 year olds in the UK how social media platforms impacted their health and wellbeing. The survey results found that Snapchat, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram all led to increased feelings of depression, anxiety, poor body image and loneliness.
Social media and Internet also expose our kids to violence, pornography, extremism, cyberbullying and violation of privacy.
Protecting the new generations against those dangers has become mandatory.
Our seminars will provide the necessary information in order to be prepared to face those challenges.
THE POWER OF MEDITATION: TECHNIQUES FOR TEENS
Language: English or French

School can be a stressful place for students and teachers, many may find themselves with more responsibilities than ever before.
While there is no way to totally eliminate stress, some schools are doing what they can to help students relax, and many are doing that through on-site meditation.
Meditation has been shown to produce a wide range of mental benefits when practiced on a daily basis. Studies have shown that it can actually change how the brain processes information and manages the effects of stress, depression, and anxiety.
Those who practice meditation, research has demonstrated, are happier and calmer than their counterparts who don’t, so it’s no surprise that even schools are catching on and making meditation a part of their education.
Our team will share some amazing techniques and the kids will have lots of fun trying them out.
