iBMe works to improve the lives of teens, parents, and professionals through mindfulness education, retreats, and school programs. They recently raised over $65,000 for teen scholarships by pledging to meditate daily for all of April. Nathan Worthen, a 19 year old who went to an iBMe retreat, talked to Mindful in the June 2014 issue about his experience: “The retreats have helped me stop thinking of myself as an idiot if I slip up. Being a teenager is trial and error time. There are a lot of mistakes to be made, but when you learn to rebound from them, it makes you stronger.”
