Helping young people improve mental health
First of all, welcome! We are delighted you are curious about teaching young people meditation.

Since 2003, the Connected Kids team has trained adults worldwide ...to teach kids mindful and meditation life skills.
Connected Kids was one of the first pioneers to bring mindfulness skills to kids and teens, and we are passionate about making a mindful difference in young people’s lives.
As the founder, my first book ‘Calm Kids’ has been translated into 6 languages and was the first step in guiding adults how to teach kids and teens meditation skills. It made sense that this lifeskill should be available to all ages and abilities.
My second book, ‘Connected Kids’ helped inform our international tranining programme. We have established a word-of-mouth reputation for our authenticity, our lifelong support and our passion to ensure young people have access to excellent meditation teachers.
We work with a child-centered approach so we can help young people of all ages and abilities – including autism, SEN, ADHD and trauma.
From mindful novice to expert…
At Connected Kids we work with those who are meditation novices to mindful experts.
We support thousands of parents and professionals through our international training programe. As compassionate experts and peace pioneers, our direct experience confirms how effective meditation is for young people and the adults who care about them.
