Generation Zen

Mission Statement

In a community where anxiety is rampant, Generation Zen’s mission is to encourage mindful mindsets through practical, accessible mental health solutions for the next generation. 

About Us

Mental health is often stigmatized in academic settings, especially in communities where educational success is highly prioritized. Many students face intense pressure to excel in school, extracurricular activities, and life in general. This normalized way of life often leads to anxiety, depression, and burnout. These challenges are frequently exacerbated in communities like ours, where cultural expectations around success can add an extra layer of stress. However, limited opportunities and outlets are available that directly address students’ needs. Recognizing this discrepancy, our passionate team at Generation Zen is committed to breaking the silence around mental health and creating a space where students can feel supported and understood.

Programs and Services

We aim to encourage mindfulness among the youth by providing understandable resources, promoting art therapy, and donating our Zen Kits to those in need. Providing resources digestible to the youth is crucial: our organization’s “Zen Ed” program, received by over 300 grade-school students internationally, is designed to approach mental health from a relatable standpoint. Our 3-part lesson provides understandable insight into the nature of anxiety disorders prevalent among students, while also imparting young people with resources for more urgent help. Additionally, through the creation of our book “A Generation Zen Coloring Book: Rainbow Reef”, we strive to promote art therapy as a healthy coping mechanism for stress among youth in our community. Lastly, as one of our most notable endeavors, “Zen Kits” proves to be a resource that, subtly yet assuredly, raises awareness about simple mindfulness techniques for day-to-day implementation. By distributing over 1500 small, physical reminders of mindfulness and relaxation, these tools provide students with practical knowledge of how to deal with stressful situations or overwhelming feelings.
