TESTIMONIALS: Counselors
[POW] helped me understand how words act on your emotions. I know now not to feed into the negative thoughts.
[POW] helped me to use my words more carefully, watch what I say to people and teach my students and my child the same tactics. [I enjoyed] the use of the helpful words and how the kids thought they made them feel.
[POW] has caused me to think before I open my mouth.
[I remember] the toothpaste presentation [as a] visual about how words stick [and] the rock presentation - how to reject negativity.
I felt self-confident.
[The presentation] was perfect. It was very relevant. You showed how something so small and seemingly ordinary (a pebble) can mend broken hearts, much like words.
I felt a sense of [regality] by being referred to as a king. I realized that words can be hurtful and that negativity stays with you a long time and it has an adverse affect on you.
[The topic was] very appropriate & relevant!!!! Especially for my daughter!!
I think the 2 things that stuck out to me the most was 1) the stones you gave them because they serve as a concrete reminder of how words have an impact on us (kids are often pretty concrete at this age still!) and 2) the instances where you had them close their eyes and think about the way they felt hearing both positive and negative comments. I could almost feel the heaviness in the room when the mean comments were being read; I wanted to wilt! But I actually felt "inflated" when the positive words were read aloud!
