Self-Built Teens

The Ultimate Toolkit for Personal Growth

26 Life Lessons

Self-Built Teens is an easy-to-use digital course for counselors, parents, or anyone working with youth.  Each of the twenty-six life lessons includes a short story with reflective turn and talk prompts to open the line of communication.  Mindful chair stretches are included to give movement, release tension, and wake up learning.  This organized toolkit is packed full of activities that create shifts and ignite momentum towards incredible possibilities.

As a district school counselor, Julie Frizzi spent hours listening to teens’ ideas on ways to boost CONNECTION in schools.  These randomly chosen teens requested short movement breaks, reflection time with classmates, and fun ice-breaker activities.  Teens & Up was created with these elements to build relationships, increase self-awareness, boost problem-solving skills, and escalate self-management tools.

Self-Built Teens contains three breathe and stretch videos with every life skill lesson.  These three titled playlists are: 20-Minute Mat stretches, 5-Minute Chair Stretches, and 5-Minute Parent Stretches.  Use these videos to practice breathing and stretching strategies or gain ideas to incorporate in your classroom or home. A total of over 78 free movement videos in the course.
