Enjoy this book and song.

At Kindred Collective, members actively participate in continuing education in their area of speciality. For example: In November Ashlyn Gautum and Kate Weir attended a 2-day workshop presented by the University of AK Office of Play Therapy research and training. The title was: Culturally Responsive Child Parent Relationship Therapy w/ Dr. Peggy Ceballos. It was incredibly special because, as the photo shows, 4 generations of child-centered play therapy practitioners were represented. 1) Dr. Garry Landreth who was a teacher of 2) Dr. Kristi Perryman, LPC-S, RPT-S who supervised 3) Kate Weir, LPC-S, RPT-S who supervises 4) Ashlyn Gautum, PLPC . . . Kindred has such a representation of child-centered play therapy practitioners!

For the 4th Day of Inner Peace, @vicday, @Embodiment LLC, offers us this wisdom about our feet. "Kick off your shoes and let your feet explore! Each sole has as many as 200,000 information gathering nerve endings that yearn to be stimulated! For all over health, take time every day to really feel your bare feet receiving the support of the floor and the Earth below. Practice wiggling your toes, all together and one at a time. Give your feet lots of pleasant and diverse s...ensations. Let the natural connections that exist between your brain and your feet flow freely! Your nervous system will thank you."

"Strong social support decreases mental health problems in young adults Awareness and presence of social support may guard against mental health problems" "Early adulthood, a transitional life stage marked by major changes in social roles and responsibilities, can bring with it an increase of mental health problems. A team of McGill University researchers has found that young adults who perceived higher levels of social support reported fewer mental health problems." #menta...lhealth#social support #youngadults#kindredcollective https://www.mcgill.ca//strong-social-support-decreases-men See more

For the 3rd day of Inner Peace, Molly Myers, our family enrichment and movement specialist, invites you to Breathe. When your mind and body begin to feel overwhelmed and exhausted from the day to day grind, or the over extension of the season we are currently in, I encourage you to return to your breath. Your breath knows what to do, it's an automatic process of the body. Stop and connect with it. To quiet the mind, keep it simple. Take a breath in and take a breath out. Le...ngthen the exhale. Repeat the mantra "breathe in" (inhale), "breathe out" (exhale). Continue to soften the body, soften the gaze and just keep breathing. In and out. Quiet the mind. Soothe the body. Return to breath. Notice the difference in your body after you have stopped and just focused your attention on deepening your breath. Notice the space in your mind. Wishing you peace and health. #innerpeace #12daysofinnerpeace #justbreathe #breath #breathe #inhaleexhale #inhale #exhale #dailygrind #keepitsimple #breatheinbreatheout #returntobreath

You might remember us advertising for a training Chelsea was hosting for therapists. It was a yoga trauma healing. It was intense and SO incredibly full of knowledge! It was an 80 hour training in 12 weeks. It’s about to wrap up and we wanted to share how much Kindred members love learning from each other! Pictured are Molly and Maggie who participated in Chelsea’s training! #trauma #healing #yoga #yogatherapy #kindredcomo

For the Second Day of Inner Peace, Corri Flaker LMT requests that you sit against a tree for a few minutes today. Pay attention to your breath and feel it become more even and full. Bring your awareness to the tree.... Listen to the air interacting with its branches. Feel the breath of the world. Come back to your breath. Do you feel the connection? In times of loneliness, you can always count on a tree to help you feel a connection to something living and ancient. Art courtesy of Corri, as well!

For the 1st day of Inner Peace, Kate Weir LPC-S RPTS-S, owner of Kate Weir Counseling LLC, Kindred Collective LLC, and My Sister's Apothecary, offers us this Wisdom: Light a Candle. Allow yourself 5 minutes to enjoy the company of the candles flickering flame. Maybe this lovely candle is a fancy candlestick, or an extra birthday candle you find in the junk drawer. Either way, the flame of a candle is holy. Holy too, is the inner spark of your spirit.... Find a cozy spot. Turn off all screens and lose your gaze in the flame. Watch as it expands or shrinks or bends with the movement of the air. Envision the same flame you see on the candle inside of your heart. Imagine this inner flame is the source of your hope, your dreams, your blessings, your joy. Take a moment to celebrate your inner light. Perhaps whisper: "I see you, spirit, thank you for filling me." When you are ready to close your practice, gently close your eyes and blow out the flame. Remember that the flame doesn't disappear, it changes form. Fire to smoke. The spirit of the flame still lingers after the flame is extinguished. Reflect on the flame of your inner spirit.

Make sure to sign up for this amazing event for tomorrow evening. Join Victoria Day, resident Somatic Movement Therapist at Kindred Collective, as she guides us through this beautiful and grounding ritual to support our resilience even through the darkest of nights. Embracing the Dark: Yielding into Rest and Recuperation Sunday December 13th 4:30-6:00PM CST The Dark Moon - when for one 24 hour period the light of the moon is completely blocked out to our Earthbound eyes - i...s a time ripe with the potential of recuperation. The Dark Moon invites us to slow down, pause, observe, reflect, and allow integration; however, many of us have lost the ability to yield into the stillness and support of Darkness. For many this can be an uncomfortable and even scary process to explore on our own. In this 90 minute online healing ritual you will be invited to yield, safely and with curiosity, into the Dark and the Stillness that you will create in your own space. During this practice, you will be supported in your process of noticing and responding to the challenges that may naturally arise in this learning process. And then together we will reflect on our individual and communal experiences, taking time to acknowledge whatever of unique value may come to you during our time together. purchase fee: $20 Register using this link: https://tinyurl.com/embracingthedark12132020 #darkmoon #newmoon #darkestnight #rest #recuperation #kindredklatsch #embodiment #kindredcollectivecomo #thereispowerinresting #moonmagic #safeathome See more

"Autism spectrum disorder affects approximately one in 59 children in the United States. Children who do not receive early intensive behavioral intervention part of the applied behavior analysis-based treatment (ABA) approach have been shown to find it difficult to secure employment, maintain friends and live independently as adults. Parents are trained on the intervention, which aims to reduce problem behavior, such as aggression, and to increase adaptive behavior, such as communication and social skills, through a combination of e-learning and play-based training approaches." #autism #behaviorskills #parenting #telehealth #kindredcomo

"Examining data from more than 5,000 individuals, researchers found that earlier onset of puberty in both boys and girls, as measured by the age at peak height velocity (the teenage 'growth spurt'), is associated with a higher risk of self-harm at age 16 years. They also found some evidence that, for girls, this increase in risk persists into early adulthood." #puberty #selfharm #adolescents #teens #kindredcomo
