Supporting our Young People: Recognize the Signs of Stress and Anxiety
I thought today might be a good time to remind everyone how anxiety and stress can show up differently in children and adolescents than in adults. If you are educator, a child care provider, a coach, a youth group leader, a parent, or someone who simply cares about young people, please take note. Our young people are navigating a lot of challenges that most adults have never had to deal with let alone imagine. The more empathy and understanding we can have the better able our children will cope during these unprecedented times.
— COVID-19 STATEMENT —
Shakti in the Mountains, in addition to our online offerings, is now open for in-person appointments. If you wish to receive counseling or want to schedule a visit, then please contact Kim Bushore-Maki. (Zoom meetings are still available for private counseling.) No drop-ins, please.
If you are feeling unwell or have been around sick people, then we ask that you not come to Shakti in the Mountains until you are well or have been symptom-free for two weeks since your last exposure to a sick person. Our region is still at risk for COVID-19, therefore, Shakti in the Mountains will continue to employ best practices to keep our community safe. Specifically, we ask that you stay away if feeling unwell, wash your hands upon entering the building, and wear a mask if in close proximity or standing at least 6-feet apart.
Thank you for helping us keep each other well.
— NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY —
Shakti in the Mountains celebrates diversity and works to create an inclusive environment where everyone feels respected and safe. We do not discriminate based on a person’s color, race, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, ethnicity, religion (creed), ability, age, marital status, citizenship, or nationality. We invite everyone, who participates in our community, to help us create a welcoming environment which promotes healing, encourages kindness, and fosters respect.
Building Community, Changing Lives
Shakti in the Mountains is a community for women (and the men who support them) to cultivate, nurture and celebrate the feminine.
The feminine is the creative energy present in all humans. It is the power that transforms consciousness itself. The feminine is the fuel we use to generate new ideas as well as the energy we use to take care of what we love. Without the feminine, our world would be lifeless and unsustainable.
We are dedicated to elevating the feminine: to providing opportunities for folks to recognize this innate power and to use it to create health, vitality and joy.
