Hello and Welcome to the Mindful Moments Blog.
Google defines mindfulness as "a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique."
My main focus with this class is to provide a nurturing and safe place for every child to feel comfortable enough to relax and let go of anything that is causing stress. This will look a little different depending on the age of the children, but even our youngest at Joyful Noise will benefit from Mindful Moments.
Each week when I visit your child's class, I will help them become focused on the present using deep breathing techniques. After that we will try some yoga and gentle stretching to allow a deeper connection between the mind and body.
Thank you for joining us on our journey to Mindfulness!
