OUR IMPACT

Growing towards the light

"Mindfulness mentoring re-directed my life into the light and into a positive space where I could be comfortable to grow in my questions. When I was uncomfortable in darkness, unable to feel calm or joy, mentoring and meditation allowed me to release the stranglehold of the mind and see how to be free of anxiety and self-sabotaging thoughts. Meditation has given me freedom from stresses that were preventing me from living and working. Thank you for your kindness and wisdom."

Better mental health

"I can definitely say this club brought me out of my comfort zone. It allowed me to do things that I honestly would never do to better my mental health. I enjoyed meeting the people that I met and I'm happy to say that I've been a part of this club for 3 years now! Wouldn't change it for anything, students should definitely join!"

Opportunities for employment

“I came to Family Mindfulness Circle with feeling alone, no community, and full of despair! Through my time here I've experienced family: inclusion for me and my daughter, birthday parties, educational events, and community involvement. Not only was I offered this emotional nourishment and social enrichment but found opportunities for employment that offered me sustenance that fit my needs as a parent. I'm so grateful for Family Mindfulness Circle, Soil & Soul, and Cocoplum Nature School.”

Mission Statement

Industrial society is attempting to live divorced from nature. Impossible. Native peoples call this separation from nature wetiko — an illness of the soul. The antidote is twofold: mindfulness and eco-healing. Our mission is to teach mindfulness, eco-healing, and compassionate finance.

Compassionate finance brings mercy to money. Standard finance has led to financialization and greater wealth disparities. Compassionate finance refers to practices that (1) prioritize people over profit, (2) free people from extractive and exploitative financial practices, and (3) redistribute wealth.

Take Refuge
