Our Mission is to end school violence and promote mindfulness, peace and calm in the classroom. We aim to provide enrichment programs for all grade levels and have an on site presence at the school. By creating the absolute best learning environment, we can reach outstanding academic goals and simultaneously achieve emotional intelligence and an all-around better student.
Our goal is to move beyond punishment behavior to change the stress response in children. We want to teach Social Emotional Learning and go a step further and be a hand to hold, a space to cry or an ear to listen. Health Empowerment Series is a safe place to identify and explore complicated emotions and find peaceful and lasting resolutions in a chaotic world. We are mothers and change makers who are all in on making our community emotionally strong.

Staffing is also being budgeted for as we will need more team members to reach more students in more schools in our community. By 2020, we will have 6 schools here! Our current monthly meeting group is elated with the outcome and has nothing but outstanding positive feedback for us. We have been growing so quickly and have gone from 10 members at start to over 100 now!
We are on a mission to make every child in our community steady in self-love, mindfulness, empowerment, inclusiveness and being good humans. We are here to show a path of peace and betterment and start a positive chain of events to build a future of safety, security and self-awareness. We will not accept one more teen suicide, school shooting or self-hating child. Our children deserve better at every age and every stage of their lives. Children who love themselves love each other. Children who have emotional intelligence and regulation create peaceful environments. Children who are supported support each other.

Shannon works in holistic chiropractic care and has a legal background and has a Graduate Certificate in Counseling focused in Contemporary Theory in School-Based Services, and Cheryl is an Herbalist with an MPH in private practice who teaches adults about health, holistic relaxation and emotional healing. The women have 10 children between them and are both are dedicated to motherhood, empowerment and helping children at all ages from all places reach their full potential.
The one thing missing from the school curriculum is teaching children how to use emotional intelligence and regulation. If they can learn this crucial life skill at a young age, they can use it at every age. We want to prevent any future damage. We never want to see violence in our community and by starting with our small town, we can hopefully pay it forward to every community around the world. #noschoolshootings #nomore #nomassshootings #nosuicide #nobullying #mountainhousementalhealthmatters
