Adolescence is accompanied by a turbulent emotional world, confusion and a feeling of alienation. Worldviews, opinions, views and dynamics in relationships take shape in it. This is a very significant period in which an event can become one that brings growth and strengthens, or becomes a wound for many years.
At one or more moments as teenagers, all of us needed a benevolent adult who would just listen, without judging or criticizing. One that will see our greatness, admire us, teach us to listen to our needs, and our bodies and be our own best adults.
In the Satya training, the teenagers learn to know themselves in depth, they gain clarity about themselves, their thoughts and their bodies. and will receive a safe, empathetic, and attentive space. We will look together at what is happening in their reality right now, analyze it and learn to deal with emotions, anger, fears, difficulties and challenges at school, with friends and more.

Why is it important and worth investing in satya training for youth?
Teenagers see and witness the problems of the society in which they live, but who teaches them how to relate to their own feelings in the face of the problems that the society in which they live suffers from? Who helps them channel negative emotions and cultivate positive ones?
The areas of the brain responsible for emotional regulation and moods change throughout life in response to cumulative experience. Especially experience from the emotional environment in which we grow up and repeated life experiences. The scientific term is - neurological flexibility.
Therefore it makes sense that most of the things to which we react with an automatic emotional response we learned during our growing up.
In other words, teenagers who come to practice the Satya method arrive in real time! When those parts of their brains are still forming.
When we teach children and youth about emotions, it not only helps them discover what is going on inside them and understand how another person feels. They also learn that talking about feelings can actually solve the problem.
When teenagers experience the power of sharing with others, it is often an antidote to the problem of depression.
In Satya coaching, teenagers learn to deal with destructive emotions, cultivate benevolent and positive emotions, and regulate emotions.
How to separate their social and emotional skills from their thinking skills, and separating emotion and experience from automatic behaviour.
They approach themselves through an empathetic and compassionate space that accepts them exactly as they are.
They begin to listen to their body, feelings and thoughts and from there get closer to who they want to be in the world.
