Other SF things: I genuinely think this is a very good idea.

Mrs. Hamburg teaches 7th grade. Her school has a rule that every period must start with 5 minutes of silent bell work. It's not meditation, but it has to be set up so the students can come in, know what to do by reading the board, and work silently for 5 minutes without the teacher saying a word. They all think it's great because they get to start every period with a calm class that's ready to listen. After 5 minutes of silence the 12 year olds want anything to pay attention to.

that sounds pretty good. 15 minutes in the middle of the day doesn't seem like it'd be as effective, but whatever works

I've honestly never heard of a destination wedding at someone's aunt's house.
