mindfulness resources for adults
“Mindfulness,” and “meditation” have become buzzwords or even shorthand for how “enlightened” someone seems to be, but in reality, these tools for becoming more present, peaceful, and joyful in your life don’t need to be so serious. The most enlightened people in the world tend to be the most joyful, playful, and compassionate.
Modern life is hard enough without trying to adopt every “successful” guru’s approach to living. The truth is that many of the things that help us most in our everyday lives come from universal themes that have been practiced throughout the world for thousands of years. We’re lucky enough to live in a time where we now have access to these ancient wisdom and cultural traditions as well as new adaptations to help us bring these meaningful practices into our lives, even if we’ve only a few minutes to spare.
Below you’ll find some of the tools curated to help you in your daily life.

If you’re new to meditation, it can be helpful to start with brief, frequent practices to build up your “mindfulness” muscle. As adults, we have become so accustomed to the lightning speed and the cacophony of modern life that it can take some time to adjust our minds to moments of true calm and mental space. But keep at it and you’ll begin to develop greater mind-body awareness, cultivate more caring, connected relationships, and reduce stress. These practices are designed to keep it simple and helpful.
