Looking for resources and/or service providers to help your classroom, school, district meet your
mental health and well-BEing goals?
Join us for our Resource Showcase!
Explore impactful, mindful supports, all in one place!
What is the Resource Showcase?
Our intention for the Resource Showcase is to create an opportunity for educators and leaders to learn about powerful mindfulness, social and emotional learning (SEL), and wellness resources to invest in and support our learning communities (students, staff, and communities).
Who can attend?
This is a free and open-to-all event. The Resource Showcase may especially be helpful for school administrators, SEL/climate/mindfulness teams, as well as curriculum and instruction teams who are looking for additional resources for their schools. The Resource Showcase is also open to any interested educator or professional looking to learn more.
How does it work?
On Friday, February 21st, there will be a Resource Showcase schedule where you can see what types of resources and services you would like to learn more about. The resource providers have a special RSVP link for you to join. During the live learning session, you can experience, practice, and ask questions to the specific resource provider. You are able to go to as many live learning sessions as you would like (come to any or all!). It is free to attend and is open to anyone interested in learning more. Some sessions are pre-recorded and instead of clicking on an RSVP link you will click on a link to download or watch the vendor's session.
Our Educating Mindfully Team will be leading intention setting at the beginning of the event and a gratitude reflection at the end of the day. Click on the provided links below to join our Educating Mindfully check-in sessions.
NOTE: Some sessions will be recorded and uploaded to our Member Community Site for future reference of resources. By attending live, you give the vendor permission to record the session. If you want to maintain your privacy, please turn your camera off.

Inner Peak AI
Facilitator: Sean Wheelock
Your students’ anxiety doesn’t conveniently peak at 10am on Tuesday when their counselor is available. Students need personalized mental health support 24/7, not at times that are convenient for us. That’s why I created Inner Peak - to be the resource I wished I had when I was struggling with anxiety, depression, and later substance abuse. After a suicide attempt, I gained new clarity around my purpose in life. I graduated from Harvard and Stanford and worked at 4 different mental health startups, determined to find a way to help kids struggling like I did. Inner Peak is the product of that work.
Inner Peak is every school's mental wellness safety net, meeting student needs when counselors can't. Our mobile application uses AI coaches to provide students with validation and support before triaging them to the appropriate therapist-created resource to help with any challenges they are facing. We also provide schools with crisis flagging and escalation and dashboards with critical insights on student challenges and wellbeing. Join our presentation to learn about ways to combat the student mental health crisis and hear about exciting ways to apply AI to support your students.

Whitewater Leadership
Facilitator: David Mullen
Resilient Leadership for Anxious Times
In a world filled with anxiety, a non-anxious leader can provide invaluable service to a classroom, a faculty, a parent community, and the entire world. David Mullen Consulting provides insights into the emotional systems of families, organizations, and society, while offering mindfulness tools to help leaders “hold their seat” amidst competing pressures. In addition to individual leadership coaching, Dave offers workshops and professional development to administrators, faculties, parent groups, and students on topics ranging from mindfulness to emotional systems to transitions to communication.
In today’s presentation we will look at the intersection of mindfulness and family systems theory, offering a path forward to leaders of schools, classrooms, and families toward greater calm and resilience in a world that challenges both.

Heart Matters
How can we transform classrooms so that wellbeing is the priority?
What evidence-based strategies can we model and teach our students? How do we move from a reactive to a proactive mindset?
When children learn to understand, manage and express their own emotions, they can problem-solve to find positive solutions to everyday situations. Educators can begin using these strategies as early as JK.
Let’s change our approach and embed well-being into our curriculums.

Take a survey - Where are you starting from?
-
What does being emotionally well mean today?
-
How have things evolved?
