Key Focus Areas
What does this programme offer to children and adolescents?
The Upgrading Minds Programme is a series of opportunities for children to learn the most important subject in their lives. That subject matter is The Self, who they are, and the self they aspire to be.
It is a holistic approach which supports children in the observation and examination of their mental and emotional processes.
What will children learn and why?
Children will learn about the 7 Aspects of the self and how together these aspects form their personality, who they think they are. Children will come to understand that their personality has been built by a number of factors, and that they have control, freedom and the ability to be who they are as their highest true self.
Our truest form is our Authentic Self which is truly us without any fear of judgement, need for acceptance or validation. This occurs when children accept their own uniqueness within all their flaws and begin to perceive them as opportunities to be more unique rather than limitations of their success. They no longer feel threatened by their environment, interactions or the potential outcomes.
Who is the Authentic Child?
The Authentic Child is one who feels energetic, curious and open to the world around him/her. Without fear of judgement this child is empowered from his/her self love, high self esteem, inner confidence and intuition. This allows the child to experience inner peace by being at one with thoughts, words and actions and to be clear and intentional about who he or she is and who he or she aspires to be.
