Through our youth work, we introduce students to the nervous system as though it’s a car with a brake and gas pedal. We show them the power of breath and instill a core memory of empowerment. Emotions are explored as big and small, and as a bodily experience that benefits from time and awareness. We see youth self-identify the “monkey mind” and begin to understand the role choice plays in building a sense of Self. Time and again, we witness the moment when the practice of mindfulness leaves a tender spot - a deep sense of connection to practice - like family. Thank you to our recent partners for helping us serve hundreds of youth, staff, and parents. See what we can do for your organization by visiting us at copperbeechinstitute.org.
