We all need strong, resilient

mental health

We believe in a proactive approach to mental health.

At The Peavey Project, we equip people to be the best they can be – for themselves and for those around them. In teaching mindfulness, we seek to meet people where they are with scientifically proven tools to enhance their health, daily performance, and capacity to help others.

Mindfulness

Noun

Mindfulness is the ability to pay attention to what’s happening in the present moment – in the mind, body, and external environment – with an attitude of curiosity and kindness, so that we can choose our behavior.

Proven benefits

People have used mindfulness as a tool to enhance their mental and emotional health for thousands of years. Decades of research shows that the practice is proven to decrease stress and anxiety, improve sleep, heighten focus, and much more.

Mindfulness Training

Who we serve

Student Athletes

We work with college and high school athletic teams, training these future leaders in our comprehensive mindfulness program to enable them to manage pressure, control reactions, and lift up others. In learning to embrace challenges with positivity and calm, they access their greatest potential. We offer in-person programming and a growing online platform.

Corporate Groups

Numerous studies show that workplace stress, a continual threat to countless companies and individuals, can be significantly reduced by mindfulness practice. We meet with corporate groups in the Richmond, Virginia area, where The Peavey Project is based, to share tools and training to safeguard mental health at work.

Community Groups

Selfless community members who devote their lives to helping others, such as educators, nurses, first responders, and parents, are often stretched too thin. We work periodically with groups in our local communities to bolster mental health by providing mindfulness training programs.

Donate to The Peavey Project

“Fight and smile. In the face of competition and challenge, exhaust yourself for a purpose or community that is greater than you and choose joy every step of the way.”
