The knowledge and tools to transform lives

Wise Mind Project is a fully inclusive, Social Emotional Learning Program. The term “Mindfulness” is an important tool by which understanding how the brain works allow for nonjudgmental attention to the present moment. By learning to identify physical cues in the body that lead to emotional responses, Mindfulness becomes the vehicle by which SEL is accessed and will be infused throughout the program, language, and culture.

What is Mindfulness?

The purpose of the program is to demonstrate how SEL can be incorporated into existing training time for teachers and instructional time for students, without adding more to “do” for either. The customized, multi-touch, and multi-faceted delivery techniques create a shared vision, common nomenclature, and culture of SEL where the concepts become a natural part of daily life in and out of school as opposed to an addition to an already overloaded schedule.
