Mindfulness (in general) is helpful for just about everybody but our program’s approach to mindfulness works best for kids and parents who want to build stronger families and learn skills to deal with strong emotions.
Learning and using mindfulness skills will help parents kids get along better and solve problems without the use of unhelpful behaviors.
#MINDFUL MOMENTS HOW TO#
Kids will learn how to talk to an adult when they are having a really strong emotion. Parents will learn different strategies around discipline that don’t involve yelling. Take three long, deep, nourishing breaths breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth. Make sure your spine is straight, but not rigid. Close your eyes and connect with the sensations of your seated body. Parents will learn how to apply mindfulness to bed time and home work routines. Mindful Moments offers several program options to meet the needs of both working parents and stay at home parents. On waking, sit in your bed or a chair in a relaxed posture. To provide examples, kids will learn how to notice a strong feeling without doing something disruptive. We serve these two flavours to families so that parents and kids can build strong relationships and to prevent the onset/development/build-up/use of challenging behavior in the family and in kids down the road. We focus on how to apply mindfulness to parenting AND we teach kids mindfulness skills to manage strong emotions. There is mindfulness for yoga, mindfulness for relaxation, mindfulness to help with academic performance and mindfulness for depression and anxiety. Find a calm place outside (or in) and let our animals guide you through a mindful moment. Be like the animals at Auckland Zoo and let your senses connect you to your surroundings.
It’s almost like different flavours of ice cream. mindful moment Sometimes our brain can have us rushing ahead or worrying about what is going on around us. This program teaches families mindfulness skills. Mindful Moments is a program that supports kids ages 8 to 12 and their parents/caregivers.
