This week-long, experiential program for high school students is based on the evidenced-based curriculum of Mindful Self Compassion, the Mindful Schools curriculum, and principles of positive psychology. During this week, we will spend time practicing mindfulness through many senses and avenues; creative projects; connect with each other through discussions and age-appropriate games; spend time outdoors, and do some gentle movement. Mindfulness practices have been studied and shown to help manage stress, increase feelings of well-being, and promote emotional resilience.

These 4 weeks will explore a variety of practices foundational to mindfulness. Each class we will practice, discuss, and then practice again, so there will be a chance to understand both the “why” and the “how” of mindfulness, which can help establish meditation as a habit.
