Montana Mindfulness Project

Montana’s youth mental health crisis calls for tools that build resilience early—not just when things reach a breaking point.

So...why mindfulness?

Mindfulness is available anytime, anywhere. Whatever your age or background, mindfulness helps regulate our emotions in real-time. We become more patient and resilience when challenges arise. We learn to create space and pause when we negative self-talk is all we can hear. We use our breath to return to the present moment. We begin to remember what it's like to feel safe inside ourselves, and to find joy in daily life.

Above all else: Mindfulness offers us a way back to baseline.

There are just hours left in Give Big. We’re proud to have served as an upstream mental health intervention in our community since 2018, and with your support, we can keep this work going. Flip through the photos in this collection to see some of the programs we have offered, free to the public since Give Big 2025.

May it last. ☮

P.S. Give Big ends at 6 PM (MST) tonight, but you are always welcome to get involved and support our mission at the link in our bio!
