Toolkit

Model mindfulness for students in tough moments. Show calm, patience, and tools like deep breathing to create space for self-regulation.

Relish family moments. Pause, appreciate the little things, and find joy in the fleeting moments of parenting and connection.

Be a mindful model: amplify your presence, reduce distractions, and inspire awareness and compassion through thoughtful, everyday actions.

Give “wise feedback” to guide kids with respect and high expectations. Inspire growth with support and belief in their ability to excel.

Challenge “intensive parenting” norms. Reflect on your values, ease pressure, and parent in ways that align with your family’s well-being.
