EQRocks's curator insight, January 29, 1:11 AM

A passionate plea to add SEL/EQ training as required core curriculum in all high schools. Five more Canadian teens commit suicide after being bullied.

The proposed course would teach empowerment and self-coaching skills:
- How to shift your thoughts and choose positivity.
- How to accept imperfection and feel worthy and good enough
- How to develop empathy, sensitivity and mindfulness
- How to let go of judgement and labels
- How to communicate compassionately and effectively
