BeMindful A.I.D.E. Model
Assess – Individualize – Deliver – Evaluate
Assess – We always meet with clients to assess their needs in order to develop customized programs for individuals in the community being served.
Individualize – We embrace diversity in various researched-backed curricula to create courses that are designed to custom fit a client’s individual need.
Deliver – Research shows the quality of the instructor is vital to the impact and sustainability of mindfulness training. We employ highly qualified instructors trained in decades of personal practice and multiple modalities to deliver customized mindfulness programs.
Evaluate – We will consistently engage in objectively evaluating all of our programs. To ensure the highest levels of efficacy and objectivity we have established partnerships with Universities to evaluate both the effectiveness of mindfulness as well as our programs.
The 3 Pillars of BeMindful Teaching:
Science, Practice & Integration
Science
We always begin with neuroscience. Our mind and body are intimately connected and understanding these processes deepens engagement in neuro-restorative mindfulness practices.
Practice
We teach engaging exercises easily woven into daily life. Teaching how to train their neural pathways to develop positive habits to benefit their overall health and wellness.
Integration
Mindfulness is a way of being it is not just another activity to pencil time in for each day or week. It is the recognition of the interconnection and interdependence of all life and choosing to engage in the world mindfully with empathy, kindness, and compassion in everything you do in every moment you experience.
