About the Certificate in Meditation for Children

The Certificate in Meditation for Children is a great course for those with a special interest in teaching meditation and mindfulness skills to young people. Teaching meditation to children is very different from teaching adults, and offers young students a fantastic first step toward a lifetime of health and happiness.

This course provides students with the following skills:

  • How to teach children’s meditation & mindfulness classes that are fun and of a higher energy to adult classes.
  • How to teach children the basics of traditional yoga poses through role play.
  • How to teach children about how their bodies work, how to look after themselves and how to be calm and relaxed.
  • Teaching children how to develop a myriad of important positive life skills to help them cope with the pressures of daily life, which they can use in the more difficult teen years, as well as adulthood.
  • Learning meditation also significantly contributes to better sleeping patterns for children and a wide range of other health and emotional benefits for kids and their parents.

  • Those with an interest in working with children.
  • Those who already work with children and want to add meditation to their work e.g. teachers.
  • Those wanting to work in pre-school, primary school, and high school settings, or in community centres.
  • Those wanting to set children up with lifelong skills to ride the waves of life's ups and downs.
  • Those wanting to start a new career in the booming mental health and wellbeing industry.
  • Those who would like learn scientifically proven holistic therapies for their own personal growth and development.
