About
me, Sunny
One day, I finally got my chance to leave my home country New Zealand and travel the world!
I packed my bag with all my favorite things and set off on a journey to explore new places and meet new friends.
As I'm traveling from country to country, I'm learning all about mindfulness in practice, which involves being fully present in the moment and paying attention to my thoughts and feelings.
My adventures are taking me to breathtakingly beautiful places, from the crystal clear waters of California to the snowy peaks of the Swiss Alps.
I met all sorts of interesting animals and made many new human friends along the way.
So come join me on my exciting adventures and learn all about mindfulness in my new, fun program series!

Challenges Confronting Educators
Teachers aim to create supportive communities for students, but their demanding work conditions can limit productivity and creativity, leading to anxiety, frustration, and burnout.
- Stress: A significant 61% of teachers report experiencing high levels of stress.
- Burnout: Nearly 59% of teachers in the United States express feelings of burnout.
- Mental Health: Approximately 58% of educators rate their mental health as "poor."
- Retention: Public school educators are leaving their positions at a rate that is now at a historical high.
A 2022 meta-analysis of educator well-being initiatives found that not only did mindfulness have the most robust evidence base, but it was also the only intervention that created sustained changes in educator well-being, between three and five months after delivery.

During my travels
I discovered that mindfulness helps me to feel calm and centered, even during all the excitement and adventure of travel.
I've visited 14 countries on 3 continents so far...
I always dreamed of seeing the world,
and now I have the chance to do it!
I learned that mindfulness can help me to appreciate and enjoy every moment, no matter where I am or what I'm doing.
