Gratitude journaling and mindfulness meditation practices have been scientifically researched and documented to decrease anxiety and depression while increasing coping skills to better respond under emotional stress at home, school or work. These practices support an integrated approach to the mind-body-heart connection, boost creativity, enhance student concentration and focus, encourage long term memory retention, and help to improve overall well-being.
Students will experience and acquire the necessary skills to live a life that is more aware, attentive, kind and compassionate, and have greater intrapersonal and interpersonal well-balance emotional, social and mental connections. The overall benefits of gratitude journaling and practicing mindful meditation are endless, which often result in students generating a sense of humanity and empathy for themselves, each other and for the world. Our goal is to create a welcoming, safe and nurturing environment for all students to be who they are, right here and right now. By taking 5-10 minutes during the week to reflect, practice and relax, teachers and students will develop a personal toolkit of strategies for a new way of learning.
Ultimately, we hope to create a global community to change the way educators offer a learning experience by placing student and teacher well-being first in order to add greater connections to class curriculum. By developing better students, we in turn develop better globally aware citizens.
