In-person retreats
The unique Inward Bound Mindfulness Education (iBme) retreat model allows participants to gain a level of compassionate insight into their own experience. Attendees achieve authentic connection with themselves and their peers.
Young people deserve our best attention + support
iBme offers innovative formats and teaching frameworks to help teens deepen their self-awareness and empathy and utilize techniques to calm and focus the mind. Our mindfulness practices enhance listening skills, compassion, and communication – essential competencies for success in all areas of life.
Justice and equity are at the core of mindfulness.
To capture our values and actions related to this truth, we created an Equity and Interdependence Dashboard and published a 10-Year Equity Progress Report. We provide testimony to how we have sought to answer this fundamental question: How does a historically white-led mindfulness organization that values connection, inclusion, and non-judgment “walk the walk” at all levels of the organization?
