Mental Wellness B.U.I.L.D. Self-Empowerment Workshops
Mission of B.U.I.L.D. (Being Unique Individuals by Learning and Developing):
Positively Caviar, Inc. recognizes the significance of empowering the next generation of children and adolescents through the imperative mindset of positive thinking and optimism.
Our B.U.I.L.D. workshop introduces youth to the imperative mindset of positive thinking and optimism as a vehicle to instill mental resilience. Rooted in positive psychology, our workshop includes techniques and strategies to help combat negative self-talk, the importance of gratitude, and an introduction to meditation/mindfulness exercises. To introduce these critical topics our team will present and actively engage youth in various activities to expose the audience to preventative mental health strategies to promote all the necessary qualities in making decisions for a positive, healthy, and resilient life. The workshop will also discuss science-based discoveries about the human brain to allow each student to gain further insights on how their thoughts can influence their habits, goals, and future.

Testimonials
“Positively Caviar presented an awesome, amazing, and educational session with the Cherry Hill Elementary Middle School girls. The exercise gave them a sense of inclusion, and it met them where they are. The quality activity and learning experience helped them to achieve social, emotional, and spiritual, well-being. The Girls did not want to leave the session and begged for the presenters to give them more time. As a result, the school, and Season Women Ministries asked for them to come back on a regular basis.”
“This was a powerful workshop that was engaging and provided leading strategies to overcome negative self-talk, subdue negative adversity and maintain a positive mindset. I would highly recommend working with this group and will be working with them again. Their energy, authenticity and vibes were very refreshing and the session went over extremely well. My students and I were able to leave the workshop with more confidence and have a positive growth mindset.”
