Sessions begin with a guided meditation followed by instruction on topics such as authentic parenting, connecting more deeply with our kids, the development of meditative skills for managing stress and reactivity, connecting and communicating more effectively with our kids, maintaining a daily practice, etc., all while building community with fellow parents. Led by Laurie Cousins, a highly experienced teacher in mindfulness and parent education, the series are free of charge.

  • Meditation Guide

    We come together weekly from 8:45-10:00 am on Tuesday mornings to meditate together and create real and lasting connections with others. It’s a beautiful way to build community and new friendships, as well as, develop a healthy routine. To optimize the experience, it’s best to arrive a few minutes before the opening meditation begins. If you arrive during meditation, feel free to use the seats near the door. Latecomers will be invited into the group after the first practice concludes. Our time together is precious and sacred and everything shared is confidential. Please do your best to remain with us the whole time. We look forward to sharing this journey with you.

    "My time attending parent mindfulness classes was one of the best experiences I’ve had at Campbell Hall. I learned how to be less reactive with my kids, which helped them develop their own capacity for reflection and resilience. And I found the support of other parents who could relate to the challenges of parenting."

    "The parent mindfulness class opened me up to more self care, clarity, calming the soul, and helping mend and deepen relationships. The neuroscience behind mindfulness is insightful and enlightens and deepens my patience and compassion for myself and others."

    "As a new member to the Campbell Hall community, the Parent Mindfulness Group has been such an unexpected gift and an integral part of my Campbell Hall experience this past year. The entire group has been so incredibly welcoming and supportive and with the help of Laurie Cousin's insight and guidance, I've acquired so many invaluable tools that have helped me to become a better parent, partner, friend, and overall human being. It truly is the gift that keeps on giving and I am so grateful to Katie Bull for continuing to cultivate this wonderful community!"
