So what are Mindful Minutes?
Our Mindful Minute videos are 60-second inspirational messages and lessons from world-class athletes across different sports. The topics range from the importance of sleep to managing stress and anxiety.
These short videos bring the personal experiences and life lessons learned from one of our athlete mentors, giving your students access to a mindset and perspective that can help them problem-solve and be their best selves. It can help you start important conversations in your classroom to address any moment.
Why are these videos and prompts important?
As a teacher, you deal with a wide array of emotions, situations and obstacles.
