Mindfulness in schools

Is anyone familiar with a year-long mbsr type of mindfulness program that is being implemented in a school (other than Lynbrook HS in New York)? Thanks so much in advance :)

Hi, Amanda. Have you checked into mindfulschools.org to see what they’re doing? Also, the Hawn Foundation’s MindUp program might be something to review.

Hope that helps!

Hi Amanda.
I coordinate US trainings for the Mindfulness in Schools Project. We offer a curriculum for teens called “.b”–we’re just about to conduct one in northern New Jersey in early July. You can check this page for more info: https://mindfulnessinschools.org/courses/dotb/

You might also want to look into the Middlesex School in Concord, MA. Doug Worthen’s done some amazing work there integrating mindfulness throughout the school. They are just about to have a one-day conference this coming Friday. Check out more details here: https://www.picatic.com/ISHA_MXS_MindfulnessConference2016#/!

Hope that helps,

Ted
