HIListically Speaking with Hilary Russo Ep52 - Scarlett Lewis: Choosing LOVE After Loss (A Message from Sandy Hook)
Nurturing. Healing. Love. Those three words were written on the kitchen chalkboard by 6 year old Jesse Lewis before he left for school in December of 2012. Those three words were also his last. Jesse was one of the 20 first graders and 6 educators killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary massacre. For Scarlett Lewis, the only single mother that lost her child that day, the pain and grief may never fade, but neither will her son's message. Jesse's words have sparked a movement led by his mom. A movement inspired by Jesse's final acts of love, and his mother's path of forgiveness. A movement that is giving children powerful tools that teach them how to manage their emotions, feel connected, and have healthy relationships.And the formula is simple: courage + love + forgiveness + compassion-in-action = Choosing Love. The Choose Love Movement is now in over 10,000 schools in all 50 states and 100 countries worldwide. On this episode of HIListically Speaking, hear Scarlett's story and join us in celebrating Jesse's birthday bash. Find out how Havening Techniques is part of the gift that is teaching children to be kind to their minds and embrace each other with thoughtful response, love and fun.
