Pause for Peace Curriculum
A 3-week Mindfulness Challenge & Curriculum for You and Your Students
WHY TAKE A PAUSE?
Pause for Peace is a three week mindfulness experience for students, educators, colleagues and families to literally interrupt their busy school day, work agenda, rushed family dinner (whatever it is!) and insert a pause. See what’s possible for your wellbeing and peace of mind when you bring even just a few moments of pause into your life each day.
WHAT YOU GET
A 3 week Daily Mindfulness Journal full of mindfulness exercises and prompts.
3 Peace in Schools mindfulness lessons from our classroom-tested Mindful Studies curriculum.
Recorded meditations of the mindfulness lessons for you to see a demonstration or share directly with your class!
Informed Tips for Educators full of practices to support you when sharing mindfulness with others.
Playful Ways to Pair Up, offering simple, fun ideas for how to group or pair students in class.
9 Bonus mindfulness practice videos
HOW IT WORKS
You can “choose your own adventure” with Pause for Peace, which offers a myriad of virtual mindfulness resources. We welcome you to utilize whichever ones feel most nourishing for you and your community. For those wanting the full experience, we recommend that you use Pause for Peace as a 3 week experience in your classroom. Once a week students receive a mindfulness lesson, offered by you or shared via the video of a Peace in Schools instructor offering the lesson! Once a day, students practice pausing using the mindfulness journal, which can be printed out our shared digitally.
