What is MYndful Movement?

You are on the front lines of education! Educators and parents, we know how hard you're working to support our kids in these challenging times.

COVID-19 has brought added stress to our children and teens, educators and parents. We are dealing with higher depression and anxiety levels than ever before.

MYndful Movement is for everyone who feels the need for more peace and calm in their lives.
These evidence-based activities show amazing benefits for our student's resilience, ability to cope with stress, kindness and patience to themselves and others, improved focus, and more.
The MYM teacher's guide includes two programs. The easy-to-follow lesson plans lead your children and teens in SEL skills through the lens of mindfulness. Have fun with these engaging moments and movement sequences for a more peaceful, more focused classroom.
Elementary, Middle & High School
Teachers take the training to practice mindfulness as you learn best practices in leading the activities, games and moments with ease.
Trauma-sensitive mindfulness is always our approach.
