MINDFUL CONNECTIONS
Evidence-based mindfulness training for those who teach, help, and care for others.
Mindful Connections is Awaken Pittsburgh’s proprietary evidence-based curriculum. It is the core of our mission to create transformational change, one individual at a time.
Mindful Connections is available in several targeted programs: for educators, for the classroom, for helping professionals, for workplace wellness, and for anyone who helps others or seeking stress reduction or to increase well-being. In this course you can learn to meditate or continue your mindful training by adding more mindfulness tools to your education. There is also a Mindful Connections program specifically designed to help those in recovery for addiction.
Led by experts in their fields and grounded in the latest findings in neuroscience and cognitive behavioral therapy, Mindful Connections classes are a proven path to powerful and lasting transformation. And now, it’s just a breath away.
