HI, I’M TENILLE BENTLEY.
I’m the founder of The Emotional Literacy & Mindfulness Academy for Kids, Author and Award Winning Community Leader with a passion for supporting our next generation with the tools I wish I could have had access to as a child.
However, emotional literacy wasn’t in the narrative in my generation. Today, we have evolved, science has caught up and we now understand the important role emotional intelligence plays in our every day lives.
As a child, I had a lot of anxiety, emotional traumas and bullying which left me feeling isolated, and unable to understand why I was feeling the way I did. I didn’t know how to express and regulate my emotions, socialise, connect with my heart, find calm in the chaos or quieten my busy mind, which I realise contributed to some of the poor choices I made in my life.
Like you, I have seen so many exhausted parents stress over what they can do to manage the big emotions that their children face, and not feeling like they have tools to help support and create a balanced home life.
It wasn’t until I discovered these powerful tools that I finally understood how much families need these for our ‘plugged in’ kids of today, helping them find peace, calming strategies, understand their emotions and more importantly what to do with them.
What I learned completely transformed my perspective, and Im sure it will for you too!

As a Parent....
Pretty much all parents can relate to watching your child’s emotions go from zero to a hundred within seconds. But no one told you what to do with this or that there could be a better way.
You never thought you would spend days feeling guilty because you ended up screaming at your kids or the household would feel a bit out of control. Parenting during these challenging times can feel isolating.
You might feel like you have tried everything, read all the books and watched all the videos.
But now you can open yourself and your child to an incredible tool that will help you breakthrough and finally feel like you have an easy to use emotional regulation and expression tool that works.

Sponsor a Child - Scholarship Program
Whilst we have many children attending our workshops, sometimes there are those who can’t gain access to our course for financial reasons. Our desire is to have this available to all children. So we launched a scholarship program where you can support other children less fortunate than us to receive a fully paid scholarship to attend our 6 week program.
