TEACHING KIDS MINDFULNESS TOOLS FOR MANAGING DIFFICULT MOMENTS AND FINDING PEACE
It's heart-breaking (and frustrating) to watch your kids try to cope with struggles and challenges day after day. You know, the difficult moments when they are consumed with anxiety, big emotions, or uncontrollable energy. Difficult moments like:
- calming for quiet activities, circle time, or naptime
- distractions when trying to focus
- sharing and taking turns
- excessive worries and fears
- uncontrollable emotions like anger and frustration
And, you've been wasting precious time trying a little of this and a little of that to help them... but nothing works.
Overcoming childhood challenges and struggles can be a breeze... as long as you have a few simple mind-body strategies in your toolbox. Mindfulness tools that will help your kids build a strong and resilient personal foundation to get through their difficult moments with ease!
Unfortunately, I didn't have these tools as a child, so my personal foundation was anything but strong and resilient. I met some challenges, both big and small along the way, and I fell hard because of it.
Let me tell you about my biggest challenge- the one that forced me to find a better way.
As a child, my biggest dream was to become a doctor. So, I pushed myself to do well in school and I did. I graduated from high school with high honors, finished a bachelor's degree in three years, and graduated summa cum laude with my first master's degree.
Now, do I tell you this to brag about myself? No, of course not! Definitely not my style!
I tell you this because even with all of these accomplishments, I still didn't believe in myself enough to even apply to medical school. Growing up, I lacked any and all confidence in myself and so, I became a quiet, shy introvert who was afraid to take any kind of risk. I didn't believe I was smart enough or good enough and deep down...
...I didn't want to fail.
So, after my first master's degree, instead of applying to medical school, I went back to graduate school to hide out in a lab doing biomedical research for a few more years and get a PhD. This way, I could prove I was smart enough, and then for sure I could find a medical school that would want me.
But, getting a PhD in biomedical science is certainly not about hiding out in a lab. Not only did I have to do the research, but I had to present and defend it IN FRONT REAL-LIFE PEOPLE, YIKES! Can you imagine presenting in front of some of the world's most intelligent minds in the field with no self-esteem or confidence?
Eventually, it all caught up with me- the stress, the intimidation, and the inferiority I was feeling- and so, after my qualifying exam, I was told I did not pass to the next level. I failed. (I really ended up with a second master's degree, but that wasn't the goal now was it?)
So, after my failure, I spiraled down into a deep, dark hole for ten years, completely unhappy, empty, and wandering through life with no direction. You see, I ended up in the deep, dark hole because first, I didn't have the self-esteem to keep myself out of the hole, and second, I didn't have the knowledge or tools to pull myself out once I found myself at the bottom of it.
After some time and some crazy coincidences ??, I found myself back in school again studying mind-body medicine, and I discovered there are seven building blocks that we all need in our personal foundation to live happy and meaningful lives. And yes, confidence is one of these building blocks. So, in an "aha" kind of moment, I realized that my earlier failure wasn't because I wasn't smart enough- I failed because I didn't have any confidence in myself.
But wait, there's good news!
The good news is that while I was in school, I not only learned about the building blocks, I also learned about mindfulness practices, that I sometimes call power tools, for keeping the building blocks strong. I used these mindfulness tools not only to rebuild my confidence but to strengthen ALL of the building blocks in my personal foundation. And, with the help of my teachers and classmates, I found my way out of the deep, dark hole. I still use these power tools every day as a way to find peace and to get through any difficult moments or challenges that pop up.
The building blocks system has been life-changing for me and my family and I am here today to share these secrets with you. And... you don't have to waste ten years like I did. Click below to start building a strong, personal foundation of joy and peace for your kids today.
Wouldn't it feel great to teach your kids the tools that put them back in control. The tools that could give such amazing results as:
- Calm bodies for quiet activities and naptime
- Balanced emotions that tame the tantrums and halt the hysterics
- Focused minds for learning activities
- Compassionate hearts that encourage and support
- A strong foundation for overcoming challenges with ease
SO, HERE'S THE REAL QUESTION...
Do you want to gift your kids with the tools for overcoming their difficult moments with ease and for building a strong personal foundation for a stress free, happy, and successful future?
You're only 1 step away!
But, here's the problem...
1. Some teachers think mind-body medicine is too "woo-woo". I teach methods and tools that have personally helped me and my clients, so I speak from experience. These methods are taken from ancient philosophy but are also grounded in modern science (remember, I am a biomedical scientist at heart).
2. Many teachers, think the ONLY key to success in life is a good education. They don't know that qualities like emotional balance, compassion, and confidence are just as important to happiness and success as a good education. If you read my story above, then you know I speak from experience here, too.
3. And still others don't want to make the investment and try to do it on their own. And, maybe they can. But why not save hours of time and trial and error, trying a little of this and a little of that to figure out what works. Believe me when I say that I have already spent not just hours but years AND tens of thousands of dollars to figure it out. Now, I'm going to share all the best stuff with you for a fraction of the time and investment.
That's why I'm so excited to share with you- my Mindful Me-School Program where your kids will learn everything they need to know to build a strong foundation of inner peace and balance!
When you sign up for the Mindful Me-School Program, your kids will learn how to create peace and balance in their lives and how to navigate their childhood challenges with ease. Each session focuses on building and strengthening the personal qualities and character traits that I call building blocks. We strengthen the building blocks using a variety of mindfulness tools like deep breathing, mindful movement, and meditation. The classes are kid-friendly and fun and include movement activities, fun games, interactive stories, creative projects and more,
That's it!
You can now check that overwhelming task of creating your own peaceful classroom right off your to-do list once and for all. With this one-of-a-kind program, I'll come to your class and teach your kids all they need to know to overcome their difficult moments and create peace and balance not only now, but for the rest of their lives.
Here are some RESULTS you can expect when you use what you learn:
• Kids who can calm the wiggles for quiet activities and naptime
• Inner peace and balance that tame the tantrums and outbursts
• Kind kids who encourage and help their friends
• Confident achievers who take action and live BIG
• Kids who love themselves and believe in themselves
• Kids who can express their thoughts and their opinions
• Calm, focused kids who are engaged in learning
• Kids who are imaginative and creative
When you claim your place in the Mindful Me-School Program, you're taking the first step in building peace and calm for now and successful, meaningful lives in the future.
I created this program using the same exact system I used to overcome my lack of confidence, and it is the same program I continue to use to help kids build their own strong, personal foundation of inner resources.
Your kids will start their journey learning about the power tools. These are the mindfulness practices they will learn and use daily, so the tools become a natural go-to solution in a difficult moment. Once they have mastered the power tools, we begin to use the power tools to balance and strengthen the building blocks that are stacked in their personal foundation.

BUT, don't just take my word for it...
Just by her presence, Dawn brings a sense of calm to my classroom. She began by teaching the children to calm their body through the use of physical tools and exercises. Then, the children worked on recognizing their own feelings, putting a name on those feelings, self-regulating, and awareness of our words and actions. The children learned compassion and empathy. Dawn's program builds self-confidence, as well as a sense of community and oneness with the world. Throughout the school year, the children in my classroom, by their own choice, continued to utilize the techniques and use the tools that Dawn left in our classroom. Oh, if all children could learn these skills- just imagine what a wonderful world it would be...

We love Miss Dawn! She has made a great impact in our classroom- behavior, emotional development, academic learning, and social development. The childen use the skills she has provided not only in the classroom but at home as well. Thank you Miss Dawn.

Let me be clear - this program is for those who are ready and willing to be an influence in their kids lives- who care enough about their kids to teach them the tools for creating a strong personal foundation of peace and balance.
So, this program is NOT for you if:
- You don't want to put in the time or effort to learn and implement the amazing info taught in the group sessions
- You aren't willing to use the teacher tips and ongoing teacher support to set up a continuing practice with your class
- You prefer to "wing it" without a step by step plan to follow
- You want to keep trying a little of this and a little of that to figure out what works
- You want to stay stuck in the stress and chaos of your classroom
So Dawn, what's my investment for this one-of-a-kind program?
When it came time to decide on the investment for this one-of-a-kind group program, I considered the value of everything I've included. When I combine the exciting group sessions filled with movement activities, fun games, interactive stories, along with the creative projects, and scripts for daily classroom practice, and ongoing teacher support, you could expect to pay $3000 or more. But don't worry, you're not even going to pay close to that.
Now, the program is absolutely worth this amount and even more when you consider the value of the RESULTS that are possible when you use what I teach you. The investment that I made to learn what I am going to teach you was many, many times that and that's not to mention all of the time I've invested to pull all of the best nuggets together into one program that is detailed and complete for teachers and fun for kids.
I know the power this information holds and what it can do for your kids and your classroom.
And, I want to share these tools with as many kids as possible so I've cut the investment of $3000 down to $2000 for you- that's 33% OFF and that includes all of the supplies for the activities. Your investment for joining today is...
YES, only $2000!
(for the full 10 months in the biweekly program,
adjustments will be made if your schedule is different)
But wait, I want this to be a complete no brainer for you so I've sweetened the deal even further!
Because I am so convinced of the difference this program will make for you, your kids, and your classroom, I'm going to go even further for you.
I am also offering you an easy, peasy monthly payment plan with no additional fees. The monthly payment plan breaks it down into:
10 budget-friendly, monthly payments of $200.00
(or adjusted for your schedule)

I absolutely believe in the content I deliver in this program. It's worked for me, my kids, and my clients. And, I'm confident that you're going to love everything I have to share with you.
