Cultivating Mindfulness at Every Age

Formerly Mindful New Jersey

Mindfulness practices offer profound benefits for people of all ages. In today's fast-paced world, the ability to focus attention, regulate emotions, and build meaningful connections has become essential for wellbeing and success. At Mindful Arts NJ, we create spaces where children, teens, and adults can explore mindfulness in age-appropriate ways, developing foundational skills that support lifelong growth.

In-School Sessions and Series

Our cornerstone is our in-school mindfulness program for young children and school-aged students.

We believe that introducing mindfulness practices at an early age (as early as 2 years) is essential (though often missing), for a child's development. Our unique age-specific curricula are designed to help children cultivate improved attention, emotional regulation, and focus. By incorporating mindfulness into their routine, children learn to navigate challenges with greater resilience and empathy.

We provide ongoing series for schools (like music or art ‘specials’), along with focused 4 to 8-week sessions.

Afterschool and Club Programs

In addition to our in-school mindfulness programs, we offer a variety of after-school workshops and classes tailored to the specific needs of teams, clubs, and organizations.

Whether it's a sports team looking to enhance focus and performance, a student council seeking to improve communication and collaboration, or a club interested in exploring mindfulness practices for stress reduction, our workshops are designed to provide valuable tools and skills for students of all ages.

We work closely with each organization to create customized experiences that align with their goals and values.

Organizational Workshops

Our mindfulness workshops for professionals and adults offer a valuable opportunity for individuals and organizations to cultivate a more mindful and balanced approach to work and life.

These programs are designed to enhance focus, reduce stress, and foster a more positive work environment. Whether you're a corporate team looking to boost productivity or a parent group seeking personal growth (and a moment of calm!), our workshops provide simple, practical tools and techniques to support your well-being and success at work and at home.

Looking for Community Classes?

We also offer a variety of drop-in classes and short series in the North Bergen area for both children and adults.

What people are saying…

  • Today... my son gushed and said you were the mindfulness teacher, and how much he loved class. I couldn’t believe how much he opened up and was engaged.

  • Kevin held an 8 week Mindfulness course for my 2's, 3's and Pre-K 4's classes at the Infant Toddler Development Center. The children responded with enthusiasm and excitement, and it was amazing to witness the calmness that took over in the classroom. Kevin's approach and presentation of breathing techniques helped guide the children toward practicing mindfulness and meditation. Many parents commented that their children were coming home teaching breathing exercises to their families!

  • This was a treat to experience. When our children learn to “lean in” to mindfulness, they can learn to quiet their minds, practice better focus, and enjoy a more calm demeanor.

A lifelong journey of discovery…

Mindfulness is a simple yet powerful practice, offering benefits for everyone, regardless of age.

We understand that everyone's experience with mindfulness is unique, and our workshops and series re tailored to meet children and adults wherever they are in their journey. Our classes provide a supportive and welcoming environment with age-appropriate activities, language, and activities for beginners of all ages.
