As the Dalai Lama so eloquently puts it, "if every 8 year-old in the world is taught meditation - we will eliminate violence from the world in one generation." Possibly the closest thing to world peace we will ever get, and we are excited that you will play your part in this quest. During this course you will learn from two leading educators all the theoretical and practical tools and knowledge you need to introduce mindfulness practices to children of all ages in a fun, engaging, and impactful way.
Whilst the classroom may be an obvious place to teach mindfulness to kids, we know that adult interactions with kids occur in many other personal and professional settings such as at home (for parents), in youth groups, therapeutic sessions, local community meetings, playgroups, and so forth. Additionally, many schools welcome external workshop facilitators - you can be the mindfulness workshop facilitator that the school books once you graduate from this training.
As this course is built from the ground up it assumes no prior experience. You will start with the basics and build a huge toolbox of activities throughout the course. Each module brings you four new topics and activities with relevant tools, theory, research, and practice. Sally provides you with real-world experience of delivering mindfulness to thousands of kids, and Chris shares the knowledge he has gained from many years of research and teaching at Harvard Medical School. Combined, you are receiving everything you need from true experts so that you can go out and make a huge difference in the world.
You are here for a reason. You feel the urge to positively change kids' lives. This training will provide you with the knowledge and practical skills to turn your dream and vision into reality.

Absolutely! The opportunity to offer mindfulness to kids goes beyond the classroom and into all areas of life where adults guide and support children. Many schools also welcome external specialists (mindfulness workshop facilitators) into class. This training is perfect for educators, therapists, parents, caregivers, health care professionals, workshop facilitators, or any other professional working with young ones.
The training course is delivered in a series of 8 modules with each module containing 4 teaching sessions. You will get a video from Chris and a video from sally in each session so they both deliver 32 teaching videos during the whole training. Also in each session you get the practical activity for kids plus an activity for your own mindfulness practice development. Additionally within each module there are extra resources and reading materials to supplement the video teaching.
There are 2 assessment elements:
1. A few multiple-choice questions to answer as part of the online learning platform at the end of certain modules or sessions. We would like to ensure that its an enjoyable experience so if you don’t know the right answers, you can try again as many times as you need.
2. At the end of a couple of modules or sessions, you will find an assignment in which you will be asked to reflect on and write about your experiences with the activities - for example, how was it to run the activity? What were the main challenges? What did you learn? You will then submit the assignment for us to quickly review it. Research shows that writing about your experiences deepens the learning experience, so we encourage you to create a regular space and time for your reflective entries as you progress through the course.
This program is suitable for the age range 5-18. During the program Sally refers to three age range groupings as 'littles", "middles", and "bigs". These would approximate to 5-8 (littles), 9-13 (middles), and 14-18 (bigs) with activity modifications suggested accordingly.
Whilst we provide you with a full program of 32 activities and suggestions for each age group you are free to choose how you deliver this content. For example you could deliver it all sequentially or choose individual items that meet your needs. You might even pick some elements out and create a workshop or short event - the materials are structured so that you can use them all together or on their own - you have complete flexibility.
Once you enroll you can start learning straight away, online, and at a time that works for you.
