Workshop for Parents & Teachers
Keys to A Stress-Free Home & School Year
​

Do you want your child/student to take responsibility for his homework, morning routine and chores? Need help channeling defiance and disrespect into internal motivation? Ready to calm your explosive household? Want to learn 10 Brain Boosting strategies to help your students in class?

Join us for a humorous, practical workshop with best-selling author and nationally-recognized expert Kirk Martin, who has trained over 40,000 parents and teachers. Celebrate Calm specializes in working with intense children, including families affected by Anxiety, Sensory issues, Aspergers, Autism, ODD, OCD and AD/HD.

Martin will provide practical strategies to:
· Create a Stress-Free home-eliminate yelling, arguing and whining.
· Improve focus, attention and behavior in class.
· Create stress-free discipline and homework time.
· Channel disrespect and defiance into positive experiences.
· Develop vision, motivation and responsibility in teens.
· Relieve anxiety and sensory integration issues.

Medication, nutrition and sibling issues will also be discussed. A Q&A session will follow the Workshop. The Workshop is FREE to the community. Teachers, parents, grandparents and all caregivers are encouraged to attend.
