Lisa Melkonian, M.Ed, RYT 400 is an early child educator, who has worked with children from various backgrounds with many different combinations of needs, disabilities and hardships. She believes that every child is an individual and that children don’t need fixing. They need support. Her certifications in yoga, meditation and other healing modalities allow her to work with children in a holistic way that supports their body, mind and spirit. She is also committed to serving the adults that work with children.  

In this presentation, Lisa will teach stress-management techniques for parents and child serving professionals. These tools will help them show up for their children with grace, patience and ease.
