Clearing up the office I came across thank you cards from a programme of mindfulness sessions I delivered in schools last year. I trained with the amazing Mindfulness in Schools Project (MiSP).

This week's #WednesdayWords are from Jon Kabat-Zinn's 'Wherever You Go, There You Are'. When practising #mindfulness we begin to notice the lens of our own perceptions that we bring to the people and situations we encounter in life. This awareness may help us see more clearly...

The Present is a curriculum for children aged 3-12 and the adults around them. It weaves learning about #mindfulness, wellbeing and neuroscience into typical activities throughout the school day, and at home. Our next course begins 30th Sep. Find out more: mindfulnessinschools.org/teach-the-pres…

What are you grateful for, right now, in this moment? Present moment #gratitude means that we are using the full scope of our awareness to notice the good things. Take a moment to pause and notice what is here in your experience right now. #Mindfulness
