Smiling Mind is a whole lot more than Australia's #1 mindfulness app.
We are the not-for-profit that is helping make future generations happier and healthier through the practice of mindfulness meditation. In fact we are aiming to reach 5 million young people by 2021 with our tools and resources.
Half of all mental illness has its onset by the age of 12. Furthermore, 1 in 7 Australian primary and 1 in 4 secondary students suffer from a mental illness every year.
Our evidence based, award winning school program aims to reverse these trends. Combining mindfulness training, resources and teaching tools to make mindfulness a seamless inclusion in any classroom, it is already utilised by over 144,000 teachers and 4m young people.
We also make mindfulness accessible to as many adults as possible through our app, which offers over 400 free meditations and has so far helped over 4.7 million people's minds smile.
Our premium workplace program is one of the world's biggest and more than 50,000 employees at companies like IBM, CSL, Reece, EY, MYOB and Metro Trains are getting the benefits.
What was once the dream of two passionate founders with a vision to support young people to develop the skills needed to support good mental health throughout their lifetime, is now a leading force globally in positive pre-emptive mental health care.
