Ten simple yet deeply impactful nature-based mindfulness practices for teens in the classroom or on their own.
 
Psychologist and cultural visionary Bill Plotkin describes ages 11-18 of adolescence as "The Thespian at the Oasis". A time for deep self-learning,  connection with community & environment and using the natural world as support for navigating social stressors and learning. Many of us never fully developed a sense of support from the natural world in our adolescence and are healing remnants of it now.
 
These nature-based mindfulness practices for ages 11+ weave together soul-centric wisdom with body-based practices to settle and soothe the nervous system.
 
An antidote to modern times.
