Our Philosophy

Mindfulness is for everyone.

Since 2007, we’ve offered simple, sustainable and impactful mindfulness training to educators all over the world with the belief that anyone can practice and teach mindfulness.

Mindfulness is a cornerstone of mental health and lays the foundation for the development of core social-emotional competencies like self-awareness and self-management.

Students and educators deserve access to mental health resources, and that’s why we created the Calm Classroom program.

Our Approach

Mindfulness doesn’t need to be complicated.

When used over time, daily mindfulness practice can provide students and educators with powerful tools to better handle stress and manage emotions. That's why we make it as simple as possible to bring mindfulness to schools and build stronger, more supportive classroom communities.

Our 3-minute scripted mindfulness practices include breathing, stretching, focusing and relaxation techniques that are easy to integrate into busy classroom schedules. Calm Classroom scripts can be led by teachers and students alike, and are suitable for all learning styles and physical abilities.

Because we believe in making mindfulness available to everyone, our non-profit strives to provide training models that accommodate a variety of school budgets and schedules. Learn how we can support you in your mindfulness journey by checking out our training options.
