Mindful Schools

Mindfulness is purposefully bringing non-judgmental awareness to one’s experience. Mindfulness creates space, replacing impulsive reactions with thoughtful responses.

Since the early 1970’s, extensive research on mindfulness applications shows its effectiveness in treating illness, anxiety, stress, and depression.
Mindfulness is wonderful in education because it:
-
increases attention span.
-
improves impulse control.
-
reduces stress.
-
builds community and empathy.
I have practiced mindfulness since 1992 and I have been a meditation instructor since 2005, leading groups and retreats for adults. Since I discovered Mindful Schools I am passionate about bringing mindfulness to a variety of youth in and outside of the school system.
Since 2021, I have led Mindfulness Fundamentals Trainings for school staff and facilitated Mindful Teacher Trainings for entire TK–12 schools.
