Blue background. Educating Mindfully logo in upper right corner-gray block letters for "Educating" and white cursive for "Mindfully." The word "Learncast" appears in orange print below that. In the center of the graphic is a white microphone with roots. Orange radio lines (thin evenly spaced vertical strips of various heights), lead from the microphone out to each side of the image. "Coming soon" is in a text book as though the microphone is saying that. The url that is listed in the post appears at the bottom of the image.

Check out the mindfulness-based learning framework!

How can you engage in gratitude practices to connect with yourself, connect with your values, and connect with your community?

Mindful adults = more well-regulated students!
