Mindfulness & Confidence Booster Sessions

Mindfulness is becoming increasingly popular with children, and for good reason. Its benefits are far-reaching for young minds, helping them to become emotionally aware, resilient and better equipped to manage their daily lives.

Here we look at why mindfulness is so important and beneficial for children.

• Firstly, mindfulness offers children an opportunity to develop key skills such as concentration, empathy and self-awareness. Through regular practice, they can learn how to stay in the present moment, manage difficult emotions and cope with stress. This can help them respond more effectively when faced with challenging situations or difficult people in their lives.
• Secondly, mindfulness helps children cultivate a positive relationship with themselves as well as others. By learning to observe their thoughts and feelings without judgement or criticism, they can begin to identify unhelpful habits or patterns of behaviour that may be preventing them from having fulfilling relationships. Mindfulness also encourages children to be kinder towards themselves – something that will undoubtedly benefit them in later life.
