MINDFULNESS & ME
What is mindfulness? How is mindfulness useful to us? In this book, we discover our own unique path to mindfulness. We explore everyday mindful practices and how to use our senses for presence, curiosity, and focus. Includes a guided imaginative story exercise for meditation with illustrations.
Mindfulness and Me provides a platform for teachers to introduce the topic of mindfulness while investigating what it means in practice. By using examples of tuning into body reactions, thoughts and self-care promote discussion for a wide range of age groups. The book outlines states of mindfulness and activities which promote mindfulness - focusing on feelings, listening to the body, indulging the senses. This topic is suited to intentional teaching and focused activities which encourage positive mental health and resilience. Mindfulness and Me is suitable for use in the Early Years and Primary for group discussion, learning, and inspiration.
