Mindfulness

“Nosce te ipsum,” to know thyself, and understand oneself with acceptance, without judgment. That is Pine Cobble’s motto and a primary focus of our schoolwide mindfulness program. We continuously connect mindfulness to the pillars, which guide all that we do. We make a conscious effort to support our students’ overall wellbeing by offering a mindfulness program for children in all grades. Weekly mindfulness classes provide students the opportunity to learn stress management and self regulation skills, build resilience, and develop self-awareness. Mindfulness practices help students learn how to form healthy relationships, cultivate empathy for others, and in turn encourages the development of sympathetic citizens of the global community.

Our mindfulness teachers have studied with; Holistic Life Foundation, are certified in yoga training, are qigong practitioners, certified in sound healing, and have studied with numerous teachers such as; Lama Migmar Tenzen, lamamigmar.net, Thich Nhat Hanh, plumvillage.org, Robert Peng and Ashana Lobody.
