Our youth and our team are doing some world changing inner and outer work! During the first half of the 2023-24 school year, over 30,000 students and their teachers have spent over 1,000,000 minutes practicing mindfulness with MLP! And the mindful minutes in class led by Mindful Life Project staff have led to millions of other minutes of students and teachers practicing together, and students and families practicing together ❤️

This transformative and life changing practice is simple but not easy. Mindfulness practice allows us the opportunity to find refuge in ourselves through a loving lens of awareness. In this practice the inner critic, the judging mind, the resistance to our inner experience melts away and we can find each moment to be an opportunity for personal growth and inner liberation. And just like any skill the more practice we do the more we improve and the higher benefits we receive. Lastly, if we start this practice early in life the more we train the mind, body and heart to live in the present moment with compassion and the more this becomes the natural way we live. So let’s prioritize getting mindfulness to our youth as early as possible.
