Surfing Emotions: Learning to Ride the Waves of Youth Mental Health

"You can't stop the waves, but you can learn how to surf!" - Swami Satchidananda

Our emotions can be compared to waves, which come in highs and lows. Just like a surfer who learns to balance on a wave, youth must do the same to manage their emotions. Instead of putting up a fight or looking for ways to escape the emotions their best bet is to get through the highs to return to a calm state. Together we can help our youth stay onboard, learn to navigate the waters, and ride the wave!
