The show that models how Mindfulness looks and feels
In today’s world inundated with distractions and negativity, the need for mindfulness is greater than ever.
Jason Hopley, co-creator of the beloved Canadian TV show Nanalan’, recognized this need early on.
Through Nanalan’, which debuted in 1999, Hopley and fellow creator Jamie Shannon effectively conveyed mindful concepts to young audiences. Inspired by their own grandmothers, the show emphasizes empathy, awareness, and acceptance.
In an era where positivity is sought amidst a constant barrage of negativity, Nanalan’ stands out as a beacon of joy and happiness.
The show’s portrayal of mindfulness resonates with viewers of all ages, demonstrating what it means to live mindfully through its characters’ relationships and actions.
