Ryan Lockee on Integrating Meditation Within the Classroom, Youth Wellness, and Ways to Focus Your Mind

Live from the Live Better recording studio! Bret and Jason are here this week with Ryan Lockee. As a former elementary teacher, and recent father and author, Ryan believes that changing one's mindset will determine the shape and future of your life. Personal development, which includes emotional intelligence, mindfulness, meditation, and developing a growth mindset, something that's not typically taught in schools, is the focus of his book, Wisdom Beyond the Classroom. Simple tools, lessons, and stories are shared in the book, which are easy to apply, and much needed in today's world. 

 

In this episode we breakdown the secrets to:

1. The importance of teaching children meditation and mindfulness practices early on so they have the tools to stay centered and focused
2. Ways to get started on meditation practices and making it a part of your routine
3. The benefits of meditation and how those skills can prepare you for everyday life situations

Listen in as Bret and Jason discuss with Ryan about his background in teaching meditation and mindfulness within the classroom, and the transformation his students had when they were able to control their thoughts, and focus on their breathing.
