    Creativity in full bloom! 🌻🎨 Many of our students express their emotions and stories through art, and the results are as vibrant as they are meaningful. Art therapy isn’t just about creating beautiful pieces—it’s about finding peace, building confidence, and exploring the world through a different lens. Art helps students express their unqiue stories and that fosters healing, growth, and hope. ✨ #ArtTherapy #StudentArt #CounselingInSchools #CreativeExpression -------------------------------------- ¡La creatividad en todo su esplendor! 🌻🎨 Muchos de nuestros alumnos expresan sus emociones e historias a través del arte, y los resultados son tan bellos como significativos. La arteterapia no consiste solo en crear obras de arte, se trata de encontrar la paz, fomentar la confianza y explorar el mundo a través de diferentes miradas. El arte ayuda a los alumnos a expresar sus historias personales, lo que fomenta la curación, el crecimiento y la esperanza. ✨ #Arteterapia #ArteEstudiantil #CounselingInSchools #ExpresiónCreativa

    Stress is in the air as the city, country and world move through polarizing and challenging times. Remember: children are emotional sponges. You're anxious? They're absorbing it. So, breathe. Self-care isn't selfish—it's essential. At Counseling In Schools, we're building sanctuaries of learning. Places where students can shed stress and focus on growth. We focus on making schools calming spaces for healing and promoting hope. From principals to pupils, we all carry burdens. Show yourself compassion and patience.. Your children are watching—and learning.

    Stress can sneak up on us, but knowing the signs is the first step to taking care of yourself. 🌱 Pay attention to what your body, emotions, and behavior are telling you, and remember—it’s okay to prioritize your well-being. Let’s make self-care a habit, not an afterthought. 💙 #StressAwareness #SelfCareFirst #CounselingInSchools ---------------------------------- El estrés llega sin avisarnos, pero el primer paso para cuidarnos es reconocer sus señales. 🌱 Presta atención a los mensajes de tu cuerpo, tus emociones y tus comportamientos, y recuerda: está bien cuidar de tu bienestar. Convierte el autocuidado en un hábito, no en un lamento tardío. 💙 #ConcienciaciónSobreEstrés #CuidaDeTi #CounselingInSchools
