A weekly 15-minute meditation which works for both kids and grown-ups! Benefits: improved self awareness, deep relaxation and better focus.
One of the foundations of mental health is awareness. That’s why the body scan exercise is such a powerful tool. As far as ‘meditation’ practices go, this one for me feels the most visceral…you can actually feel it working. Plus you come out the other end in a super calm, peaceful and connected place. The littlest ones might find this a challenge - so tell them before they start, this might be one they find tricky…teeing it up as a challenge can often help kids lift their game and want to give it a go! Especially when you do it with them!
