to heal and transform their communities through mindfulness.
Cultivating equity in under-resourced schools with mindfulness-based resilience and leadership curriculum. Together, we can close the achievement gap from the inside out.
WHAT WE’RE FACING
Schools are the frontlines of the future, yet their systems of support are outdated. Educators rarely receive the resources they need to meet the mounting stress, anxiety, and trauma of their students (let alone take care of themselves!). From high dropout rates and teacher turnover to low test scores and staff morale, even the most well-intentioned schools are struggling.
We believe that mental health is a right, not a privilege.
A school’s success depends on the wellbeing of its students, staff, and administrators. Together, we can support them all. Mind Body Awareness Projects offers research-backed, mindfulness-based training to help you realize your school’s potential.

Our culturally responsive approach examines the intergenerational, historical, and systemic forms of trauma impacting students and staff on a daily basis. We utilize the frameworks of developmental trauma disorder (DTD), Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB), and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) to understand the root causes and coach participants through practical, mindfulness-based techniques to respond with compassion and understanding.
