The Relaxation Retreat provides Bugbee children with five mindful activities and experiences that they can practice and use independently. When we teach mindfulness to children, we equip them with life-long tools to build self-esteem, manage stress, and skillfully approach challenges. By teaching children meditation and mindfulness skills we help them increase their well-being and enable them to meet the stresses of the world with presence, self-compassion, and perseverance.
