Our Mission
BeWell in School is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Nashville, Tennessee that teaches mindfulness and movement-based stress reduction tools in schools and communities.
Our Impact
4,500+
students served by Bewell
We serve over 4,500 students daily at our eight Gold School Partner sites. An additional 1,000 students are served at other partner sites.
720+
minutes dedicated to mindfulness
Our partner schools begin and end the day with roughly 2 minutes of mindfulness. As part of the daily announcements, the Principal or BeWell Teacher leads the school through a breathing strategy and affirmative “I am” statement.
74%
Reduction in behavior REFERRALS
In the first year at our Pilot School, Warner Arts Magnet Elementary School, the school logged only 33 behavior referrals. This compares to over 150 the previous school year.
Our Programs
We bring mindfulness and movement to schools, workplaces, and communities. Our programming is malleable to suit your needs. Our strategies, rooted in breath and movement, are appropriate and effective for people of all ages. It’s never too early or too late to learn effective tools for self-care and self-regulation.
