​SOCIAL & EMOTIONAL HEALTH

 

like 1:1 coaching, group or peer-to-peer coaching, online communities for well-being courses

Please do not plan on using this stipend for paying down debt, donating to an organization, any form of online gaming, a one-time vacation, or buying gifts for others (unless it is a consistent act of kindness practice—see "Acts of Kindness" category under Social + Emotional Health). While those items may contribute to your well-being, they are not what R2B intends your stipend to be used for.

 

Below are some recommended programs/practices to consider.

We hope you get inspired!

Hear from some fellow participants:

"With the stipend I enrolled in an intro to floral essences class and an intro to herbal teas class. I have always been interested in using natural medicine and the classes helped further expand my education and adapting different methods to apply in my personal health well being. Using specific teas and herbal essences in my home helped reduce everyday stress."

Therapy/Counseling

Working with a small group of others who can support you socially and emotionally

Hear from some fellow participants:

"I took a coaching program on gentle / conscious parenting to better my relationship with myself as a mother and with my kids. We talked about other strategies to use when getting frustrated with kids etc, how to connect first before reacting as well as talking about how the brain develops in littles."
