Beginner Level
About 40 million adults in the U.S. experience elevated levels of anxiety. It's never too early for our teens to learn strategies to enhance calm, reduce worries, and develop an anxiety-free lifestyle.

In each class: 1. Students will hear a brief overview of what anxiety is, specifically the physiological process and how strategies can interrupt that process 2. Students will learn at least 2-3 strategies 3. Students will learn why the strategies work to reduce worries and anxiety
