Mindfulness Matters
Education & Childcare Programs
The Root to Rise mindfulness program for education and childcare settings is designed to support children and adolescents ages 2 years and up. Curriculum and practices are created to support physical, cognitive, emotional, and social learning outcomes and are highly adaptable to individual, group, and organizations' specialized needs.
Program Details
Through an integration of yoga, art, and nature-based activities, we deliver high impact mindfulness programs that support the whole developing child. Pre-programmed and customized curriculum are created using backward design planning ensuring that activities are strategically aligned with the learning goals of education and childcare centers.
In addition to considering learning goals, children's developmental ages, interests, abilities, and backgrounds as well as the culture of the learning environment guide not only curriculum development but also implementation of the program so as to deliver the highest level of safety, inclusion, and support.
Program Outcomes
​​
-
Developing the child and teen's internal resources, for greater coping, self-discipline, and self-regulation
-
Supporting the child and teen's cognitive functioning and problem solving, building greater resilience and adaptability to change
-
Improving social skills and ability to repair relationships when challenges arise
​
​
While the aforementioned are general outcomes, the program is highly customizable to organizations' specific learning goals and needs. Likewise, the program can be adapted as follows:
-
Integrated into the learning day as 5-15 minute mini-lessons, 30-60 minute lessons, or 90 minute and longer workshops
-
Added as a before or after care program
-
Used as training directly to teachers and staff to be utilized when and as they see necessary
The general developmental outcomes of our mindfulness program are:​
-
Increasing the child and teen's awareness of personal strengths, challenges, and needs
-
Creating greater recognition of emotional experiences and how these experiences influence the child or teen's actions
