The Moment Program

Mindfulness practice in school settings is growing but there are few programs available for middle school students. As youth make the transition to middle school, there are a number of challenges and stressors they might face; youth need to be prepared with tools to cope with these challenges. Mindfulness can provide students with new ways to effectively regulate their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors, which in turn, can positively influence their success in school.
