Financial Support

Our mission is to make all of our programs accessible. Every fee-based offering has a limited number of pay-what-you-can spots available to support self-identified people of color, members of marginalized groups (queer people, transgender people, and  people with disabilities) and those in financial need (those for whom the cost to attend is not financially possible). 

These spots are offered on a first come, first served basis. Please pay at the highest level you can afford. In order for this support to be available, we rely on those who can afford to pay the full price to do so.

Find out if spots are available by clicking REGISTER NOW on the event you are interested in.

Refund and Event Policies

In these four fun and experiential webinars we will be exploring different mindfulness and self-care tools for staying present and connected through all the ups and downs of teen life.

During these challenging times of distance learning, COVID-19, racial awakening, and political unrest, paying kind attention to ourselves, each other, and the world all around has never been more important. Mindfulness practices help us re-discover our inner reserves of resilience, steadiness, and kindness — and can be really fun, as well!

This class series will include meditations, mindful movement, artwork, journaling, and digital connecting, among other explorations. No prior mindfulness experience is necessary.

Ages 13-18.

Schedule (Saturdays 3-4pm PT)
Session One February 27th: Feeling at Home in Your Own Body
Session Two March 6th: Riding the Rollercoaster of Life
Session Three March 13th: Finding Joy and Freedom
Session Four March 20th: Belonging: That Includes YOU!

***If you’re unable to attend the live class series, or miss a class, you can still purchase the series. We will email you links to each class for you to watch at your convenience (or re-watch.) Videos will never expire.
