MC4ME, Michigan Collaborative For Mindfulness in Education, is a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing Mindfulness education to schools. Learning simple and meaningful ways to focus for our kids with learning differences is powerful, especially when faced with challenges throughout the day. Mindful practices teach more than just calming techniques, it teaches how to let go of the negative and celebrate the good in situations, in others and in oneself. The Crim Foundation has been an integral part of bringing Mindfulness to several Genesee County schools. My classroom was fortunate enough to have Trice Berlinski come in to teach several, 15 minute lessons last year. She has been in several classrooms in our school and has moved on with my son's class to the Middle School where many teachers have been trained and students are benefiting. Trice's group, MC4ME is having an event in April. Please click on the link below to find out more about the event and Mindfulness.
