We now know that for children to flourish socially and emotionally, we need to educate both the heart and the mind.

About Heart-Mind Well-Being

About Heart-Mind Well-Being

When we talk about Heart-Mind well-being, we are referring to the importance of not only focusing on developing the cognitive aspects (our minds) but also all the qualities that make us human (our hearts) and ultimately give us meaning in our lives. We have conceptualized Heart-Mind well-being as five inter-related social and emotional development domains.

About this site

Heart-Mind Online is for all those who are searching for evidenced-informed resources that educate the hearts of children. This collection of resources builds capacity in individuals and communities to support the Heart-Mind well-being of children, and promotes their positive social and emotional development. This website was developed by the Dalai Lama Center for Peace and Education. Learn more about Heart-Mind Online here.

In addition to this collection of online resources, the Dalai Lama Center also offers virtual, interactive workshops designed for adults who work with and care for children and youth to learn how to promote heart-mind well-being in young people. Learn more about our upcoming events here.

It is thanks to our donors that we are able to develop the free, accessible resources available on Heart-Mind Online. Consider becoming a Heart-Mind Supporter, and making a donation. Your funds provide children and youth with a heart-centred approach to learning.
