Dr. Niki welcomes Laurie Ferris, Associate Director of Hunter School in New Hampshire, to discuss how highly sensitive children benefit tremendously when administrators offer holistic energy healing modalities as part of a school-wide initiative.
Laurie Ferris is the mother of Zach (now 13 years old) and the Associate Director of the Hunter School in Rumney, New Hampshire, a therapeutic residential/day program for highly sensitive children ages 5- 15 years old. As the mother of Zach, Laurie experienced for years the emotional roller-coaster and stress of parenting a highly sensitive child, diagnosed with a multitude of labels including severe ADHD, Sensory Integration Disorder, Unspecified Mood Disorder and Tourette’s Syndrome. As a result of this journey, Laurie and a team of Hunter Collaborators developed Energetic Mindfulness™. The distinctive methodology of Energetic Mindfulness™ showcases and models the tremendous benefits of paying attention in the present moment, being mindful of and self-regulating the impact that our thoughts, behaviors and attitudes have on us, others and the world around us. Energetic Mindfulness™ utilizes a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy with a twist of mindfulness and an understanding of thoughts, energies, behaviors and actions.
Dr. Niki can be heard on Dreamvisions 7 Radio Network.
