Mindfulness For Families In Four Simple Lessons

Bringing mindfulness into the family routine is a healthy way to instill a practice that will last a lifetime. Any activity can be turned into a meditation/mindfulness practice. In this course, families will learn four ways to bring mindfulness into their daily routines. Lesson 1: Mindfulness in the morning while getting ready for school Lesson 2: Mindfulness in the car while driving home from school Lesson 3: Mindfulness at the dinner (or breakfast) table Lesson 4: Mindfulness at random times of the day These lessons are intended for families with children between the ages of 6 and 11 who have the attention span to follow directions. (Please make your own decision whether your children can follow along with the guidance.) The lessons are set up so that a parent/guardian listens to the practice and does it alone first. Then, they choose when to bring it into their family routine. Each lesson should be reviewed by the adult first before trying it with their children. These lessons are structured so that you can do them one at a time and come back to the course for the next one when you're ready.
