The two of them also shared techniques for self-regulation when students feel anxious or overwhelmed. This time of year, high schoolers have a lot to contend with—exams, graduation, big life changes—and mindfulness is the perfect tool to help! Thanks to Emmaus for having us 🐝

Last week, we wrapped up Mental Health Awareness Month by sharing mindfulness with students at @EHS_Hornets. During lunch periods, Jocelyn and Sarah ran a table outside the cafeteria and engaged students in simple mindfulness and gratitude practices (seen in the first photo!) ✨

Here, we offered a selection of breathing flashcards, a calming glitter jar, mindful crafts, a breathing ball, and sweets to practice mindful eating. 🍬 @BethlehemAreaSD

Check out Shanthi Project's tabling setup for @BASDLincolnCS Kindergarten Welcome Day last week! 👀 At community events like this, we introduce mindfulness to kids and their parents by leading short, fun, and approachable practices.

How exactly does practicing mindfulness benefit our minds and bodies? We wrote about mindfulness, stress & the brain in our newest blog post — and Mental Health Awareness Month is the perfect opportunity to learn about the physical impact of mindfulness! https://t.co/NzspIUnm3o

What a beautiful evening! Thanks to all those at March for having us — including their principal, Mr. Gonzalez (pictured in the photoset above). 💙

Another successful tabling event, held just last week at March Elementary's STrEAM night! ✨ Shanthi instructor Annie met lots of local families, leading mindfulness practices for students and sharing our mission with community members. @EastonAreaSD @EASDMarch

Families stopped by to take a deep breath or two and shake out their bodies to balance all the excitement of the event. Kids also got the chance to engage in some mindful art 🎨 by assembling a "breathing bead wand."

Recently, Shanthi instructor Annie led art sessions at Thomas Jefferson Elementary's STEAM Afternoon. She worked with 2nd and 3rd graders, crafting a class mandala and teaching mindfulness along the way. Such a fun day — thanks to all at Thomas Jefferson and @BethlehemAreaSD!

Setting healthy boundaries is key to protecting your mental well‑being and easing stress. A few easy ways to start:
✅ Share the load by delegating when you can.
✅ Say NO when you need to—it’s okay!
✅ Carve out time for yourself with some well‑deserved self‑care.

As #WorldMentalHealthWeek starts, let’s remember the importance of mental health.

Millions of people around the world face mental health challenges. Yet stigma still keeps many from seeking the support they need.

Let’s change that.

Breaking the silence starts with us. Reaching out, staying connected, and supporting one another can make a real difference.

Many thanks to Bonnie at The Journey Home for leading an arts activity for Shanthi Project's team building! Each creation was a collaborative process, with everyone contributing unique additions to all pieces of artwork. Everyone went home with beautiful garden illustrations!

Today marks the beginning of National Teacher Appreciation Week! When it comes to our in-class programs, the support of classroom teachers has been essential—from welcoming our instructors, to engaging with our programs, to practicing mindfulness with their students. Thank you 💙
