THE FOUNDATIONS OF LEARNING and BEHAVIOR: Weekend Workshop
Learning with ease and navigating social “waters” are the result of children having strong neurological foundations and well- practiced sensory systems as the building blocks for higher functioning capacities. Knowing how to identify and strengthen these systems greatly enhances learning and behavior in children (and adults!). In addition, knowing how to identify a child‛s unique learning profile allows for using the gateways the various ways that children learn.
Tools provided in this workshop promote creating an environment for ease and understanding in the classroom and home life and are hugely effective for tutors, speech therapists, and counselors as well as teachers and parents. Gain an extensive “toolbox” with a variety of easy to use, playful activities to enhance neural efficiency and reduce anxiety in children and promote our own integration as the adults who guide them!
The weekend is an intro class on primitive reflexes, foundational sensory systems, and learning profiles that underlie challenges with academic learning, social behaviors, and provide understanding to why and how we all process differently.

THE ORDER OF LOVE: Family constellations with Susan Schlosser
Family Constellation work is a potent way we can support the healing of unresolved issues in our family of origin. As we “clear the waters,” we undam places where love got stuck, and we free our children from carrying generational baggage that is not theirs to carry. Join us to experience this transformational tool that has ripple effects on all areas of our life as we realign with the order of love and heal our family system.
This day is hosted by Ohana Family Resources and facilitated by Susan Schlosser. I have been doing Family Constellations with Susan for over 15 years. It has had powerful affects on my relationship with my family, friends, and work life. I am so excited to share this experience with you.
Susan Schlosser, M.A. has been guiding people through the powerful process of transformation for many years. Through deep listening and connecting with the Greater Soul, she brings compassion and light heartedness to the journey of awakening, while honoring and respecting the wisdom that each person carries in their own soul. http://truenatureconstellations.com
