Today we looked at their 'movie mind' and having faith in the future. The were students really engaged, interested and focused, and it was hard to stop the discussions and keep to time!
Visualisation is a difficult skill to master but they really had a go at it including the wonderful but tricky wishing tree activity where they try and visualise a heartfelt dream/ desire and let it go, and have faith that this positive change will happen at some point in the future.

Their practice with mindfulness is really paying off, and you can feel the increase in focus, and attention. One student has already mentioned using the spaghetti test each night as when she does she gets to sleep really quickly instead of it taking and hour!
We finished the sessions off today with a great mindful movement activity. and if you'd like to try it out with your children, here it is!
