Our Mindfulness for Young Adults programs help young adults learn how to manage stress and develop the wisdom needed to guide important life decisions. We use the Koru Mindfulness curriculum, designed to be both approachable and practical for the busy 18 to 29-year-old.
College students and young adults have more choices today than ever before, causing toxic amounts of stress evidenced by alarming anxiety, depression and suicide rates. The ability to calm mental chatter can be a crucial skill to combat these stressors. Koru Mindfulness students are less stressed, sleep better and live with greater mindfulness and self-compassion.
The Center for Koru Mindfulness developed this evidence-based curriculum using extensive research by Duke University psychiatrists Holly Rogers, MD, & Margaret Maytan, MD.
Taking the Koru course includes lifetime access to the companion app.
Goals of the course include:
- Improvements in quality of sleep
- Skills for managing anxiety
- Less stress
- Improved focus
- Emotional regulation
- Resilience

What does a typical lesson look like?
Our 4-week sessions are delivered once per week for 75 minutes, and are usually implemented into a college or university environment. These courses introduce various mindfulness practices, which participants to “taste and see” for themselves what works for them. Homework between classes is usually 10 minutes of mindfulness practice per day using the Koru app.
We also offer two 3-hour Koru retreats each year, in the spring and fall. These retreats are beginner-friendly introductions to mindfulness, and include extended periods of silence. Sitting periods will be alternated with movement practices.
