Mission

We're on a mission to make mindfulness second nature in Jackson Hole. By tapping into the transformative power of mindfulness to reduce stress, increase resilience and empathy, and facilitate more effective dialogue, we can create positive change on a community-wide scale.

About/Programs/Events/Services

We help people train their brains to be more present, more aware, and more resilient to the challenges of life. We do this through guided mindfulness practices, daily micro-practices shared via email and social media posts, and intensive in-person trainings. We also support a network of community leaders bringing mindfulness into their civic and business organizations.
