MESSAGE FROM co-FOUNDER Holly Rogers
Redefining the Way We Teach Meditation
During my years working with students at Duke University, I saw firsthand the toll stress and disconnection were taking on young adults. At the same time, I saw the extraordinary impact mindfulness could have, when taught in a way that truly resonated.
Alongside my colleague Dr. Margaret Maytan, I set out to create something different: a practical, structured approach to mindfulness designed specifically for the realities of 18- to 30-year-olds. We wanted to make mindfulness accessible, relevant, and immediately useful—whether in the classroom, the workplace, or everyday life.
The impact we witnessed was remarkable.
Today, the Mindfulness Institute for Emerging Adults (formerly Koru Mindfulness) partners with educators, institutions, and organizations around the world to teach mindfulness in a way that sticks. Our mission is to equip a new generation with the tools to stay steady under stress, through transition, and across all areas of life.
Together, we can transform how mindfulness is taught and empower a generation to thrive.
