Pros: Quick set up for home-school connection encourages a more holistic mindfulness practice — in and out of the classroom.
Cons: Pricing structure makes access difficult for schools on limited budgets. Video and audio is accessible but can feel limiting for those looking for a more hands-on experience.
Bottom Line: Set programs with short guided exercises make it easy to incorporate mindfulness both on-demand, and as a daily routine practice.
How Can I Teach with This Tool?
When teachers sign up, they’re invited to join a 21 day challenge, with a different mindfulness exercise to present each day to the class. For teachers looking to introduce mindfulness as a new program, this is a great place to start. The first exercises include both audio and visuals to help students stay focused. Incorporate these short videos at a strategic point in the day, such as right after a break. Or use them to start the day and get everyone present and focused. Teachers can invite their students’ parents to follow along — and to practice the same exercises at home if they'd like.
In addition to the daily practice, teachers can explore other series and resources. For example, there are specific practices for helping with transitions, to help reduce anxiety and refocus after a school safety drill, or for use specifically by school counselors. Teachers can also access wellness exercises designed specifically for them. And, there’s a small library of classroom activities to complement guided meditations, such as exploring the five senses, mindful eating, or exploring the benefits of teamwork.
