I used the breathing technique you taught us in my Kindergarten class. I found the children were better able to concentrate on the lesson being taught. They now also ask to breathe as a class before lessons are being taught.

Mind Over Mess with Mary Fowler is a truly beneficial stress seminar. I’ve attended many stress management seminars, but few accomplished the goals that this seminar does in just a few hours. Techniques are beneficial and one wants to retain them and perfect them.
- Secondary Teacher
I loved the strategies—very practical. Case examples are great and very helpful.
- Learning Center Director
Presenter was knowledgeable, organized, and entertaining! The course was actually enjoyable—even on a Friday afternoon. I think stress management is a vital skill for all of us as educators.
- Middle School Teacher
It’s great to take a workshop that focuses on helping teachers cope—giving us REAL TOOLS! (that we can also use with our students)
