New podcast episode is live! 🎧
“Mindfulness Through a 5th Grader’s Eyes – Big feelings, simple tools”
In this episode, I sit down with 5th grader Lily to talk about mindfulness in real life; in the classroom, on the playground, and in those moments when big feelings and meltdowns take over.
We explore simple tools we’ve practiced together:
🙏Gratitude in everyday life
🤪How to calm the body when emotions feel “too much”
🧠Kid-friendly brain science to understand what’s happening inside
Later, a mother and teacher joins us and shares how mindfulness is enriching her own life and the lives of her students.
💓If you’re a parent, teacher, or simply curious how mindfulness can support kids with big emotions, this conversation is for you.
(Insider: Lily is now in middle school!)
