What You Should Know
There's A Gap
I learned about mindfulness through my older female family members, and because of that, I was wary. How could I be interested in something that these ladies enjoy? Generational differences are a thing.
​
Typical teenage assumption - good thing I took the chance!
With teenagers knowing so little about mindfulness, and lacking representatives for their age group, I decided to take the first step in bridging that gap.
I want the next person who comes along to learn about mindfulness from someone their age.
​
Setting the example for others is the best way to engage others, and to prove that young adults can utilize it too.
Mindful Teen: The Podcast
Why This Content Was Chosen
If you wanted a guided meditation, look elsewhere! There's millions of those online.
This podcast is meant to educate, not to lull you to sleep. I want my age group to LEARN, and do whatever they wish with that knowledge later.
​
Demonstrating that I'm capable of being vulnerable sets the example that others can too, and that they are able to HEAL, and COPE.
I feel as though teens don't have enough safe space to let go!
It is SO important that I can create that safe space, even if it is short-term.
Maybe what we learn together can be carried on to help develop healthier boundaries, better empathy, self-awareness, and more happiness!
