Ep. 37 | CASEL Series Part 4: Social Awareness – Growing Our Circle of Awareness Beyond Ourselves

Show Notes

---

Social Awareness is the 4th pillar of the CASEL framework and the topic of this episode of Mindful Conversations With KAY. Now that we’ve built some SEL skills in personal awareness and exploration, we are ready to grow our circle of awareness beyond ourselves through compassion and empathy.

Listen in as Kelly and Kristi discuss:
*How to move from self-awareness to social-awareness
*The importance of modeling and sharing your internal dialog
*Starting with simple ways to demonstrate and practice social awareness in everyday situations
*Poses, games, and meditation practices to promote empathy and compassion
*Suggestions for children’s literature and yogic philosophy discussions around social-awareness
