MVYPS.ORG/WELLNESS - Calm for MVPS Staff

Welcome, MVPS Staff!

It is with great gratitude to Martha's Vineyard Vision Fellowship that MVYPS is able to, for a second year, offer its staff an annual Calm App membership under an MVYPS organizational account with Calm for Business!!!

If you signed up for a membership for 2023, and you have NOT already activated an MVYPS account in 2021 or 2022, then you can follow the steps below to activate your account. If you are an MVYPS staff member who is interested in activating an account, but have not provided your information to Kim Garrison, please contact her by clicking here.

Whether you have 30 seconds or 30 minutes, Calm’s diverse content library (which includes content in various languages like Portuguese) offers resources to suit your schedule and needs. Explore guided meditations and specialized music playlists to help with stress and focus, mindful movement video and audio, relaxing Sleep Stories, tailored content for children, wisdom-filled masterclasses led by experts, and much more.

In addition to the personal benefits of using the Calm App, MVYPS encourages its instructional staff to also explore using the app with students in classrooms and learning spaces. To help with using the app in this manner, Calm has educator resources that can be found here: https://www.calm.com/schools/resources. MVPS also encourages professional learning communities to explore and share the use of the app with students and for personal benefit as well. There may be additional opportunities to grow this practice...stay tuned!

With gratitude for all that you do,

Kim Garrison

MVYPS Behavioral Health Coordinator

GET STARTED HERE

To activate your account, simply follow the instructions below to gain full access to Calm—the #1 app for mental fitness.

STEP 1 (PLEASE READ IN FULL! THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP):

If you already confirmed with Kim Garrison that you would like a membership, you can click the "Calm MVYPS Activation Link" button below. It will take you to the MVYPS activation site for Calm.

NOTE: You must do this step on a WEB SERVER (i.e., your computer). It cannot be done through the Calm App on your device!

Activate your account with your work email address "xxx.mvyps.org."

NOTE: You will be asked if you already have a Calm account.

If YES you have an account already--even if it was a trial, click YES. You will be guided through steps to register for an MVYPS account and adjust your personal account settings.
If you have never activated an account, then you do not have an account and you need to click NO. Sending Kim your interest in having a MVYPS membership does not equal having a membership. That step only makes you eligible. You still need to activate an account

STEP 2:

Once you've completed Step 1, you can download the Calm app on your device (i.e., phone) and log into your new account. I advise you to bookmark the Calm link on your computer if you want to use it in your classroom.

If you have the Calm App already installed on your phone, I advise you to log out and then log in again. It will refresh your settings in the Calm App database.

STEP 3:

Your Calm subscription gives you unlimited access to the full library of content at calm.com and in the Calm app. Sign up for one of Calm's Live Employee Welcome Sessions to learn more.

STEP 4:

Enjoy in good health!

STEPS TO ADD DEPENDENTS:

Calm Business benefit is now allowing members to add up to five of your dependents to receive their own premium Calm subscription.

Inviting your dependents is easy—here are step-by-step instructions.

Once added, each dependent can create their own unique profile and access Calm’s diverse content library of over 350 narrators in seven languages. (Please note that qualified dependents are 16 years of age or older. No information about a dependent’s use of Calm will be shared.) For more information, please visit Calm’s Help Center. Or click on the Dependent FAQs sheet here.

We hope this expansion of coverage of the Calm Business benefit will make it easier for the people you love to be mentally and emotionally healthy and promote their well-being.
