More information
Our project was created after seeing the need for schools to refocus on developing the whole child. Many of our students and families are confronted with very difficult life circumstances. As our educational funding continues to suffer, students and families are receiving less resources. Mindful Life Project was developed with the understanding that our communities need resources that will lead to healing and developing skills that will support life long resiliency. Mindful Life Project provides the tools and skills to create change in behavior and discipline, which guides them to become positive leaders. This change in the students will then lead to a stronger school climate and community. The focus of Mindful Life Project is on empowering students to find the inherent greatness within themselves. We use many different healing, and resilience-building modalities to help the students who are suffering greatly and affecting the learning environment of hundreds of others. Our focus is on bringing awareness to each student's experiences and closely working with families to find the innate power of each child. By using many different proven methods of healing and empowerment, students learn skills and tools to persevere through difficult emotional experiences. Each student finds ways to stop the negative cyclical behavior. They find discipline and awareness to help confront all of life's experiences. This improves not only the student's life outlook, but creates a more peaceful school and community climate.
