Practicing Mindfulness for Self-Connection

Mindfulness is a powerful tool that can help children slow down and pay attention to the present moment. Mindful Spaces and My Body is a book that guides children through exercises and activities designed to promote self-regulation and a sense of calm from within. By focusing on the senses, practicing mindful breathing, and doing body scans, children can learn to be more aware of their bodies and emotions.

This book aligns with CASEL SEL competencies, specifically targeting self-awareness and self-management skills. Through simple instructions and engaging illustrations, children can learn how to be more present and in tune with themselves.
