How to Tame Your Worry Monster
For this age group (9 and 10 yr olds) we keep it fun—as in really fun—even as we teach the fundamentals of mindfulness and meditation. You’ll be surprised how quickly your kids will pick it up!
Here’s what Kelsey will introduce through engaging, age appropriate language and activities:
- Exploring what mindfulness is and how your child can use it to help them come back to the present moment when frustration, worries and confusion arise.
- Showing them how to pause so they can tune into their own experience—and the world around them—with wonder and gratitude.
- Practicing how to connect to their minds and bodies in fun and calming ways.
- Using the breath to regulate and calm body, mind and emotions.
- Guiding them to use their imagination so they can feel more peaceful and, from that place, compassionately interact with their emotions and thoughts.
Why do these skills matter? Because they help train our kids—in a fun easy way—to pause before they act, to pause before they speak, and to not believe every thought that comes into their head. Little by little these simple skills can make a big difference—helping them discover resources within themselves to deal with life’s complexities.
We’re committed to creating a safe space during our time together so your child will know they’re joining a community of fun and kindness.
