Mindfulness in the Classroom

Practice mindfulness and learn the art of slowing down. Through classroom practice, students can develop lifelong tools to help focus and calm the mind, reducing stress and anxiety while promoting creativity and wellbeing. To begin this practice, all that is needed is time! Use the below resources to guide your students, fellow teachers, or yourself through easy and mindful meditations. This can be done as little or as much as you like, whether every day, before test days, or whenever a little calm would benefit the class.
