GROWTH

Growth is the third focus of the Balance program.  At Balance, we believe that growth is an ongoing process.  Our minds naturally learn from the experience of others. In order to achieve the full value of the growing process, we should expose our children and ourselves to positive and healthy people.

Balance Initiative for Kids not only focuses on developing wellness and nutrition, we also help children develop positive life skills.  For instance, if the child expresses interest in becoming an artist, baker, pilot, etc... we strive to set - up a time for the child to be introduced to that profession to motivate the child to achieve their goals. 

We also believe that an important part of growth and well - being is growing our actions towards others in our community.  Throughout the program, we will spend time with each child volunteering for other organizations in the community.  Our time may be spent helping out in the soup kitchens or helping out seniors in their gardens.   We want to express to each child that finding happiness within yourself is only half of the equation because happiness is only found in ones’ self when we pass it on to others.
