Atlas of Belonging
Seeking youth serving artists and organizations to participate.
Imagine an entire school – students, teachers, and administrators – taking time each morning to turn inward together, and listen to a brief mindfulness prompt and world-class music.
The Well's programs combine best practices in arts and wellness and are designed in partnership with those they serve.
We love collaborating with local, national and international community partners and peoples in a variety of arts programming and mindfulness practices.
We are a small yet mighty team, dedicated to making a big difference with what we have. Your support means the world to us.
Over the summer, I set a personal challenge: could I meditate for one hour each week?
Every Tuesday before work, I walked to a park near our office, set my phone down, and allowed the sounds of the neighborhood to bring me back to the present moment. At first, I felt distracted or that I was “doing it wrong,” but with practice I began to find a rhythm of settling, breathing, and listening. The impact of those hours was immediate. My Tuesdays always felt the most grounded, focused, and productive. On weeks I missed, I noticeably felt more rushed and out of control.
The reminder was that practicing and protecting my time for stillness is essential.
The beginning of a new school year can often feel like a whirlwind of emotions and busy schedules, but protecting our time for stillness can be transformational. We see the evidence in our students. No matter their emotions of the day, four minutes of Mindful Music Moments boosts classroom mood by 25%. (Read impact data)
These pauses–even just four minutes long–are foundational to creating a more calm, focused, and ready to learn environment for students and ourselves.
