It’s time to get in the mindfulness groove. Of course, we’re talkin’ iBme-style, which means fun!
Formerly known as Commit to Sit, Summer Bound is our annual spring fundraising + community practice event.
Re-Treat Yo Self (that’s right, Park and Rec fans!) is this year’s youth-approved theme for 21 days of self-love, reflection, and expression. This youth-focused, adult-friendly experience will take place April 1-21 via Instagram and Zoom.
A Re-Treat Every Day for 21 Days
Join your favorite iBme teachers, mentors, and teen alumni in practice and connection as we all get ready for summer!
Wake up everyday with a new practice prompt from your friends at iBme! Live special events will include music performances, guided meditations, and community conversations.
Summer Bound is also about raising funds for teen scholarships.
Since 2017, we have provided 2,023 youth (78% of total participants) with $1.7M in tuition assistance. With your support, hundreds of teens across the U.S. will have a life-changing experience through iBme’s mindfulness retreats.
Re-Treat Yo Self on Instagram
Engage with us on Instagram every day, via our Stories and posts, as we re-treat ourselves to all kinds of goodness. We’ll greet you in our Stories each morning with the day’s theme and resource, along with goofy polls and announcements for live events. And you are invited to show our community how you’re re-treating yourselves by tagging your posts with #retreatyoself and #summerbound!
