 One of the best things I've ever done was take Mindfulness training. It changed my whole outlook on dealing with the pressures daily life brings. It also gives me greater satisfaction in everything I do. Now schools use Mindfulness to help kids of all ages deal with the stress they face in school, at home, and in their social networks. It's been proven that Mindfulness training in schools helps cut down on anger, confrontations, conflicts, and bullying. It can also help students do better in the classroom. If your school doesn't teach Mindfulness, find out how to incorporate it in your curriculum. You can use my book in a Mindfulness course sponsored by your district or in your own classroom as part of your curriculum to enhance English, social studies, or health education skills. It would also be a helpful homeroom resource.
Counselors can use it with individuals or groups.
Look for Helping Kids Live Mindfully:A Grab-Bag of Classroom Activities for Middle School Students. You'll find it a helpful resource book for teachers, school counselors, kids, parents, and extended family members. You'll discover many hands-on activities kids can use while they're experiencing bullying. Helping Kids Live Mindfully will also keep all kids in the class informed so that if they ever face bullying, they'll have ideas about how to fight it. The book satisfies curricular goals in English, social studies, and health classes. Buy it from Rowman and Littlefield, the publisher, on all major bookstores, or Online.
