What is mindfulness for youth organisations?

Young And Mindful CIC is looking for opportunities to educate the young people you support through mindfulness.

Through our 14 week course we can teach them how to enjoy ownership and responsibility of their own wellbeing thereby creating a lasting and vital life skill for healthy and happy relationships.

Transforming young minds

Chapter 1

Rabbits
in headlights

Youth organisation participants often start off hesitant and reserved, facing the unknowns of growing up and societal pressures. Mindfulness introduces a means to ground themselves amidst these challenges.

Chapter 2

Exiting
comfort zones

Through mindfulness, participants are encouraged to step up and engage with their inner world, sharing and discovering personal and collective aspirations within a supportive environment.

Chapter 3

From fear
to freedom

As a result of the mindfulness journey, those who commit develop the confidence to express themselves and contribute to their community, fostering a sense of shared growth and understanding.

Explore the youth organisation mindfulness journey

What are the actual steps involved along the way? Discover the process youth organisation members go through on their mindfulness journey.

1: Discovering ones potential

We begin by teaching all participants about their mind and body. We introduce mindfulness techniques and exercises from the very beginning, such as quite and slow time.

2: Building strong relationships

We let participants connect and build a relationship with us at their own pace. A relationship that dismantles hierarchy. Together, we share lived experiences, interests, and stories.

3: Listening, feeling, & expressing

Participants explore their more inquisitive side. They begin asking questions and share what they’re going through. And most importantly, they develop compassionate listening skills.

4: Discovering happiness

We ask everyone what makes them happy and satisfied. We then collectively discuss empathy, love, and how we can work together to achieve happiness and satisfaction.

5: Finding balance

Life isn’t all sunshine and roses. We learn to cultivate gratitude and appreciation, so that everyone can find peace and return to a place of comfort, even at the toughest of times.

6: Reflective practice

Participants reflect on what they’ve learned in the past 14 weeks. They take on skills to solve new problems together, and how they can their share results with others.

What’s included in our mindfulness courses?

14 weekly sessions

We arrange 14 flexible workshop sessions that fit into your youth organisations timetable. We’re confident participants will love joining in on these sessions.

A personal book of life

Journalling is for everyone. We work with all participants to create a ‘Book of Life’. This book can be used to help develop a more holistic self-understanding.

Meditation exercises

The meditation exercises and mindfulness techniques we teach are often shared with close friends and family members. We see them as lifelong tools.

Online library access

During our mindfulness course semester, we give ongoing access to our additional resources. You retain access for 3 months, after the course is completed.
