Mindfulness for Families

Great news! Our school has signed up to use Inner Explorer’s Community Edition, giving all of us the opportunity to start practicing mindfulness with our students. In addition to providing self-care for caregivers, the simple “just press play” program fosters life skills such as improved focus, compassion, gratitude, and self-regulation as key elements in a student’s continuous improvement.

Inner Explorer has advantages for families, too. The program is designed to be easy, requires no previous experience, and can be incorporated into any part of your day. Proven effectiveness of daily practice includes:

  • – Reduction in stress
  • – Increases in overall well-being
  • – Decreases in disciplinary behavior by 60%; and
  • – Higher grades for reading, math and science by 28%

The Community Edition license allows us to give our entire school community, including families, full account access to each age-appropriate program every day of the year. You can practice individually, together with your child/children, or each child can practice mindfulness on their own. To set up your account, click on the link below. You will be asked to input your name, email address, designate your account password, and input your contact number (optional) to get started.
