Inner Explorer created Mission Moments to keep you updated on the impact your support and generosity has on those we serve. We want to share not only program developments, but also the stories that warm our hearts and fuel our mission to reach ten million mindful children by 2020. A goal we accomplished because of you. Thank you!
At an Inner Explorer school in Killeen, Texas student academics were improving, but when the kids starting behaving with more compassion on the playground the principal asked: "Is that mindfulness too?" The answer is YES. When we were young, adults told us to do chores and handle difficult situations because it would "build character"; positive strengths and attributes like grit, empathy, gratitude and leadership.
