Foundations in Meditation:
Accelerator Series
An Accelerator Series for Educators and Others Who Work with Youth
I’m Rachel Wixey and I facilitate meditation for wellness. I do this from my Wellness Center in Northwest Ohio, and I do this in schools and in businesses for workplace wellness.


This series is my answer.
For the first time, I’m offering this Accelerator Series for Educators as a hybrid offering, providing on-demand lessons as well as live, virtual gatherings, and loads of resources.
We’ll devote over half our time to establishing our own daily meditation practice. This is how our health and wellness are impacted; this is where our personal growth occurs.
We also view this as foundational for being skilled to bring it forward with youth. We’ll engage meditation practices together and our time will provide simple steps, so you know what to do and why you’re doing it when you practice on your own!
The last third of our time will be dedicated to exploring best practices for working with youth, and establishing safe connections with others. We’ll dive into rich resources that will support you in representing these initiatives in your classroom, building and other work environments.
Here’s the Good Word from some past program participants:
