Greetings to all parents and learners! I'm Gita, a Mindful Schools Certified Mindfulness Instructor, dedicated to fostering well-being in kids, teens, parents, and educators by alleviating stress and anxiety while promoting balance and overall wellness.
With over 30 years of personal mindfulness meditation practice, I've been imparting the transformative benefits of mindfulness and secular meditation techniques for over 7 years. I honed my skills through a comprehensive six-month meditation teacher training with the esteemed Willpower Institute in Canada & Thailand, earning my Meditation Instructor Certificate in 2014.
My commitment to mindfulness education deepened with over two years of mindfulness training courses through Mindful Schools, in California. I completed the Year-Long certification program, earning the title of Mindful Schools Certified Mindfulness Instructor (CMI) in 2018. This certification equips me to teach Kids and Teens using Mindful School's specialized curriculum.
Mindfulness, to me, is the art of paying attention to both our inner and outer experiences with openness and curiosity. It involves embracing our experiences without judgment and fostering kindness towards ourselves and others.
In the realm of education, I've witnessed the power of mindfulness in helping children and teens maintain focus, enhance concentration, improve academic performance, and develop self-awareness. Through mindfulness training, they cultivate compassion and care for themselves and those around them.
Teaching mindfulness meditation is not just my profession—it's my passion. I am driven by a desire to share the profound gift of mindfulness practices with as many people as possible. My aim is to help individuals reduce the stresses of daily life and pave the way for a happier, healthier, and more harmonious existence.
You can explore mindfulness further through my website, Meditationforallages.com, where I offer meditation guidance for adult professionals. Beyond my work, I find joy in reading books, strolling outdoors, practicing mindfulness meditation (of course!), playing the piano, traveling, and cherishing moments with my family and friends.
Let's embark on a journey of mindfulness together—a path to greater well-being and a more enriched life!Reviews
