A Teen Reflection Program for Boys

The Heart & Mind Series is a BRIMI program designed to support teen boys as they develop emotional awareness, confidence, and character. Centered around the Reflecting Strength: The IMIRB Journey for Boys book, this program invites teens to explore what real strength looks like, not just toughness, but balance.

Through guided reflection and thoughtful discussion, boys are encouraged to understand their emotions, think before reacting, and grow into young men who lead with both courage and character.

Rather than focusing on performance or pressure, the Heart & Mind Series creates space for teens to reflect and develop a stronger sense of self. Boys are reminded that true strength comes from awareness, self-respect, and balance between heart and mind.
