Mindful chair stretches are woven throughout the book to encourage movement, release tension, and re-energize learning. This organized toolkit is filled with engaging activities that inspire growth, create positive shifts, and ignite momentum toward incredible possibilities. 

As a district school counselor, Julie Frizzi spent hours listening to teens’ ideas about how to boost connection in schools. These students consistently asked for short movement breaks, reflection time with classmates, and fun icebreaker activities. Self-Built Teens was created with these elements to help build relationships, increase self-awareness, strengthen problem-solving skills, and develop self-management tools.
