The Tools assist educators at all levels across disciplines to reduce bias and make sustainable decisions in daily life.

They empower teachers to bring peace and academic concentration into busy classrooms through a holistic understanding of body, mind, culture, and environment.

It offers a range of interactive classroom-based and professional development exercises, including mindfulness practices, transformative journal worksheets, and micro-actions.

A useful self-survey equips educators with a baseline to develop diversity, mindfulness, and sustainability competencies.
