What We Do
Youth Meditation equips communities of children and adults with the life-long skills of mindfulness and meditation to overcome stress, anxiety, anger and depression. By building the resilience and capacity needed to transcend social, emotional and physical challenges, they can achieve good mental health, learn effectively and thrive in their daily lives.
Our current clients include Alexander Youth Network, Niner University Elementary School, Black Child Development Institute of the Carolinas, Southside YWCA and more. Help us teach children and their caregivers the tools to access education and live life with joy.
(Note: Youth Meditation was formerly known as Simputer (USA), and completed a name change as of July 2014.)
