No mind left behind

Join us to make the tool of mindfulness as available as a toothbrush.

We all deserve access to affordable, flexible tools that can enable resilient communities. We are proud to serve schools, nonprofits and communities with these tools supporting both mental and physical health.

 

Our Mission

Community Mindfulness Project empowers all people to lead healthier lives by expanding access to mindful meditation.

Our model is made possible by community-led partnerships sponsored by donors.

What makes us unique

Since the beginning, we’ve done things differently. 

We create spaces that are conducive to learning and connection. We deploy a systemic approach to mental and physical health and social emotional learning. We are broadly-distributed and community-based. We are secular.  We unlock agency and access for communities through partnership. Our tools are affordable, portable and flexible.

 
This is the wave of the future, meditation and mindfulness integrated into the classroom and curricula. It’s happening.

Our Programs

 

We reach people where they are and invite all to participate. In Public school classrooms, in maternal health clinics and nonprofit hospitals, in libraries, and in our community spaces wherever people who traditionally do not have access to accessible mental health support feel safe and want to gather.

We provide direct programmatic services through partnership with local nonprofits, education and healthcare spaces.

MENTAL HEALTH

Mindfulness has been shown to support mental health by helping to manage stress, regulate emotion, and foster a sense of connection. Studies have shown that mindfulness-based interventions can reduce or prevent anxiety and depression, improve focus and help with addiction.

PHYSICAL HEALTH

Mindfulness-based interventions have been shown to reduce blood pressure and inflammation, help with chronic pain, psoriasis, Type 2 diabetes, and fibromyalgia. improve sleep, and there's even early research on how it can help protect against Alzheimer’s.

 

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT

We have a loneliness epidemic in America. Loneliness can cost us an estimated 15 years of life expectancy. When we come together to support each other as a community, we are more connected & ever more resilient.

TRAINING

Our founders and facilitators have collectively been trained in many trauma-informed and evidence-based mindfulness programs for serving adults and children.

 

Our Partners

We work in K-12 public schools with the greatest unmet needs, community colleges, clinics and hospitals, libraries & free public spaces with women & girls, boys & men, youth connected to the justice system, migrants & immigrants, substance recovery case workers & patients.
