Sharing mindfulness with my students will help them academically, socially, and emotionally. Utilizing the MindUp curriculum in small counseling groups along with mindfulness activities to reinforce the concepts, will allow the students to become more self aware. With their new self-awareness, they will be less reactive, better problem solvers, and happier, more peaceful human beings.
Research has shown that incorporating mindfulness into student education decreases negative behaviors and increases pro-social behaviors. As the students learn concepts from MindUp, their focus, self regulation, and quality of life will improve. Playing games like Mindful Matters will reinforce what they are learning in our small counseling groups. With these games, they will also be having fun as they learn life-long skills.
