Practicing Neurobiology (IPNB) and Mindfulness in the Classroom

Anna Shepherd teaches mindfulness to 1st graders. Sounds a little unusual, right?

Anna is a graduate of the Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) studies program at PSU, which we inherited and turned into a first-of-its-kind 6-month certificate program open to anyone in any field! Through the program, Anna explored how experiences and relationships affect the brain - and how teaching mindfulness to her first grade students benefits their education, personal growth and experience in the classroom. Learn the impact of her Interpersonal Neurobiology and Mindfulness training, below:

Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) is a theory and practical working model which explores human development, attachment and functioning as being a product of the relationship between the body, mind and relationships. Also called relational neuroscience, IPNB describes how the brain and mind are shaped, or developed, and how they function based on the interplay of genes and neurophysiology in the context of relationships.
