A Place Where Wellness & Wonder Meet
Mindful Adventures was created for families who value emotional growth, mindfulness, and connection to nature. We believe that every child deserves the tools to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and calm, and our programs are designed to nurture these skills in a fun, supportive environment.
Meet the Founder
Traci DeLario, LMSW is a dedicated advocate for children’s mental and emotional health. Her extensive experience as a social worker, combined with her specialized yoga training, uniquely positions her to address the challenges children face today.

Our Philosophy
At Mindful Adventures, we believe that children flourish when given the tools to manage their emotions and connect with the world around them. Our programs are built on three core principles:
-
Mindfulness: Teaching children how to pause, reflect, and find balance in their daily lives.
-
Nature Connection: Encouraging curiosity and grounding through intentional outdoor experiences.
-
Community: Creating a safe, inclusive space where children feel supported and valued.
We aim to inspire children to embrace their inner strength, foster a love for the outdoors, and thrive in a connected community.
Our Story
The inspiration behind Mindful Adventures comes from the personal and professional journey of our founder, Traci DeLario. As a licensed social worker with nearly 15 years of experience, Traci has spent her career supporting the mental and emotional well-being of children and families in the Rochester community.
Her passion for mindfulness began with her own yoga practice, which led her to complete a 200-hour yoga teacher training through Breathe for Change. Combining her expertise in social work with her love for yoga and nature, Traci envisioned a program that would empower children to thrive emotionally, mentally, and socially. Mindful Adventures was born out of this vision—a space where children can explore mindfulness, develop emotional resilience, and build meaningful connections with the natural world.
