Mindful Kids Blackwood

Mindful Kids Blackwood Mindful Kids Blackwood offers sessions for children which foster calmness, emotional awareness and empathy.

The sessions are based on the work of Janet Etty-Leal, a woman who teaches these classes in Melbourne at various schools (See about her work at www.meditation capsules.com) I have completed a course with her and I am also 5th year student with a meditation study group in Norwood. Sessions would involve such things as - Learning what being mindful is and how we can use this skill (relationships wit

h friends, parents, teachers; study, sport etc)

- Learning practical tools to help with mindfulness in everyday life (developing focus etc)

- Talking about emotions, especially the tricky ones like frustration and anxiety, and how we can better manage them. Classes may typically involve using smell, taste, stretching, relaxing, discussion on topics such as what anxiety feels like in our mind and body. Kids are more distracted than ever with all the digital technology today. Teaching our children tools that allow them to be focused, calm, and emotionally aware is (I think) just as important as academic learning (and aids this as well!)

When we're empowering children to play outdoors, language choice matters! Are we focused on enforcing rules or supporting development? More often than not, the goal with nature-bonded parents is to strengthen connection, development, nervous system regulation and autonomy through specific word choice while ensuring a measure of safety.

Raising children in a modern day environment can be stressful and difficult at the best of times. But I genuinely believe that it should be regarded as an honour and a pleasure by all adults who are able to influence children in any way, whether you are an uncle, parent or just a friend of …
