The science is in --- repeatedly, convincingly and inarguably. Learning healthy and sustainable habits can have extraordinary lifelong benefits. MUSE Global Schools are using this science as their guide to teach healthy and sustainable lifestyles to our kids and providing them with both the desire and tools to eschew the powerful marketing campaigns of fast-food campaigns while also protecting our earth. What a tremendous and timely platform for educating and transforming future generations while also engendering a culture of health, wellness and environmental literacy. MUSE Schools are doing this and deliver what every parent strives for: healthy, happy and inquisitive scholars of tomorrow! MUSE Global Schools are innovating and transforming education.

The sheer beauty of OMD (One Meal a Day) and MUSE is the trajectory we are setting for both our kids and our planet in one fell swoop. Our kids thrive on "strong burning fuels" making them powerful, healthy, and great teachers for their entire family. In the same way, our planet thrives on "clean burning fuels" allowing us to be climate healers instead of climate destroyers. Unadulterated science, honesty, and the love of nourishing people and the planet – these are at the core of OMD and MUSE.

Many children today are stressed, creatively suppressed, and out of tune with themselves, their bodies, and nature. Along comes MUSE, an amazing school that provides all the elements children need for optimal development -- then takes it to the next level by offering education in nutrition and environmental sustainability. I was blown away when I visited their Calabasas campus; I highly recommend MUSE to any parent who wants their child to be truly seen, heard, loved, valued, and accepted.

The world is changing in both good and challenging ways, and the MUSE Model prepares kids to not only be able to cope and adapt to global health and environmental issues, but also to become the leaders who will navigate our future in sustainable and conscious ways. Their students are creative, forward-thinking problem solvers who are well equipped to succeed in untold ways. Every time I've had the privilege of speaking with them, I'm again reminded of how MUSE brings about brilliance.

Pioneering anything new in education can often require herculean effort and a admirable maverick persistence. The innovations that MUSE has successfully achieved over the past 12 years and continues to do everyday have measurable and extraordinary benefits for children. Because MUSE serves as a beacon of sustainable living and design, students are engaged and motivated in so many areas, such as but not limited to: academics, communication, creativity, confidence, health & wellness (and more). I am thrilled that MUSE is sharing this with others worldwide!

All too often traditional education models focus on getting children to conform. Education should respect and nurture creative freedom in our kids, encouraging them to be themselves. For many of us, our creativity is our career. At MUSE, not only is it OK for a kid to be their authentic self but their personal passions and creativity are encouraged and celebrated. The MUSE approach to educating children turns walls into doors of limitless possibilities
