In this Global call, Master Practitioners Bahia El Oddi Puigpinos and Verena Gibbs explore the ways in which Social Media influences our sense of connection and relationship.  Social media is a complex and sometimes emotive topic. It was clear from the open dialogue and chat that the topic of social media felt present and important to many on the call, prompting deep reflection, wonderings and perhaps a greater awareness of our own patterns and behaviors.

Bahia and Verena also curated a wide range of resource types, from videos, research to articles to support further exploration. You can find the resource attached here. It includes different topics that may be of interest, including the impact of social media on brain development, kids and teens mental health, and how algorithms work. They included platforms with helpful guides, toolkits and training to support parents and educators.
