Mindful Schools is an evidenced-based curriculum that integrates mindfulness into K-12 classrooms using a 20-lesson program; taught once a week, each lesson is 20-30 minutes. Brief, yet consistent, moments of awareness can improve attention, interpersonal relationships, and compassion. Through experiential classroom exercises involving breathing, listening, sensing, calming, and self-reflection, students learn how their thoughts, emotions and behaviors influence their experiences and develop a mindful “toolbox'' to change knee-jerk reactions to wise responses.
