High school students and teachers are carrying a heavy load. From pandemic-impacted learning to addressing and correcting DEI issues, we are living in a time of uncertainty, imbalance, and transition. Now more than ever, we need to make classrooms places that foster care, curiosity, and calm.
That’s where Inner Strength comes in. Our programs support whole person wellness, with emotional literacy, systems thinking, contemplative reflection, and compassion for self and other. Teens gain self-confidence as they learn to work with an integrated toolbox of mindful awareness, kindness building, social-emotional skillsets, positive habit building, a focus on purpose and potential, the science of brain development, & an understanding of complex cultural shifts. These are the skills and perspectives our leaders of tomorrow need.

“Meditation is a gateway to infinite reflection, and reflection is what leads to success.”
“I have come out of this program much wiser and more open-minded.”
“I learned how much our brain is developing and how much we need to take care of it.”
I learned how to think calmly before I act. If I’m in a stressful situation, I now know to think and calm down instead of acting out on impulse.
I learned to be more in touch with myself.
I learned about the teenage brain and the different types of hormones that result from stress.
A mindfulness class can be beneficial as it teaches skills to manage stress, improve focus, and enhance overall well-being. It provides practical techniques to cultivate present-moment awareness, which can be valuable in navigating life’s challenges with greater resilience and mental clarity. My favorite part was interacting with others and reading the affirmation cards.
I learned about the different roles and different parts of the brain. I learned about various techniques to de-stress and de-clutter my mind in order to be a little more productive. It was an enjoyable and helpful class and I’m glad to have been a part of it.
I liked that my instructor always had something new to do with us everyday. It wasn’t boring.
I thought that the mindfulness program was extremely beneficial and contributed to me maintaining a positive mental state all throughout the semester.
Social media is designed to be addictive. A Congressional case, working with whistleblower documents from one of the largest social media companies revealed to the public what these companies are doing with their algorithms, why, and how they profit off of the way our teens scroll.
Inner Strength is developing a new Behind the Screen: the Money Motive Behind Social Media campaign to educate youth on why social media consumes so much attention and makes them feel so bad, how much media companies are profiting off their online activity, and what they can do to limit the media company’s interference and make conscious, informed choices over when they use social media, why, and for what purposes.
Our four module interactive program is under development. You can work through the beta slide deck now and start to feel empowered as a person, not as a product some company is using to sell information about.
Please email your feedback. We are looking forward to testing with youth this Fall and then releasing a full online version so parents, teachers, and youth can gain their autonomy and wellbeing back.
Here’s to a happy, face-to-face summer!
