This series will support your students in practising Mindfulness, through developing strategies that are explicitly tailored to help students to help themselves when it comes to stress, anxiety and overwhelming emotions.
Each ‘episode’ approaches a different technique or emotion, helping students to unburden themselves from the weight of negative, obstructive thinking. The core idea is that they (and we!) can stay calm, present and in control.
The episodes cover:
Introduction (What is mindfulness/benefits/what we will do)
Here and now (Tasting meditation) - polo mints required!
Breathing
Mornings
Option Reflection Session
Appreciating the Present
Anger (the Red Wolf)
Gratitude
Generosity
Each episode comes with a PowerPoint and a script, written in the notes of the PPT. Of course, you are welcome to use or change the script, however it has been carefully written, using professional input from life coaches, child psychologists and certified counsellors, to maximise mindfulness and the accessability of it for children.
Each episode also comes with a pre-recorded video of the same presentation, enabling a ‘click and play’ approach, if you would not rather record your own or do the talking yourself.
Finally, if you don’t want to deliver this session on a ‘Monday’, you can change the opening slide! Mindfulness is for every day, not just Mondays! (Although I personally need it a little more on a Monday…!)
