Fall Resources and Opportunities

As the summer air chills and a new school year begins, we may find ourselves settling into new routines. Let us support you in this time of transition with resources to help you settle into a new or old practice, to bring together classrooms (and families!) for a moment of mindfulness and to reimagine what gathering can look like.

Try them out, share with a friend or loved one, let us know what is working best for you!


Mindful Music for School

Mindful Music Moments kicks off another year with a curated playlist that highlights songs of comfort, strength and hope from diverse voices. Whether your school is meeting in-person, remote or blended learning, Mindful Music offers art-fueled rituals for each school day. Mindful Music supports not only students but teachers and parents with access to the content beyond the classroom. Additionally, we have just added Mindful Music for Homeschool families. More info here.
