The experience of neurobiological regulation methods, meditation practices for children and the experimentation of group EMDR protocols continues.The artists guide the participants in the staging of playful activities with the aim of differentiating emotions (for pre-adolescents), finding themselves in relationship with the other and with oneself (for adolescents), motivating joy and attachment (for children and their tutors).

SEXUAL VIOLENCE PREVENTION PROGRAMS BASED ON FULL ATTENTION, PVSBAP.

The objective of this program is for children to develop in a harmonious and playful way strategies to deal with different situations of sexual violence that they may encounter.

Taking advantage of the fact that the practice of Mindfulness is very simple, it goes through the body a lot (children understand body language perfectly), and it is a prevention tool to help children and adolescents cope with stress, dispersion , anxiety and calm down, our program is based on this practice.
Through this program, children adopt behaviors to prevent and protect themselves from aggressors, and not become victims due to lack of knowledge, adequate and internalized information, including their families.
In addition to the complete program of Full Attention, Artistic Interventions with corporal expression and play are made, integrating exercises on respect for sexuality and the prevention of sexual violence.
