Mindful Monday’s weekly practice for teenagers

Teenagers 12 and up are welcome to join our new Mindful Monday’s drop in Mindfulness group.

Every Monday evening in Discovery Bay 6.30 to 7.30pm.

Reserve your place

The teenage years are filled with ups and downs, and life can seem like a roll-a-coaster. In these weekly group practice sessions we will introduce participants to various mindfulness practices and activities, and some simple movement exercise. There will be opportunities to share experiences and ways mindfulness can help teens in their daily lives.

Mindfulness is a way of paying attention to things as they happen, to be consciously attentive and present with what is happening.  Being aware of the sun on your skin, the wind in your hair, those little (or big) irritations, or tiredness in your mind and body. With mindfulness you can observe how things are right now, not stressing about the past or worrying about the future. 

Beginners and past students are welcome

Monday’s 

Dates: Sept 17, Oct 1

Location: Suite 514 Block B, DB Plaza, Discovery Bay, 

Cost: $50 per session

PAST EVENTS

2017 Mindfulness Programs 

Stress less with Mindfulness for Teens 12 to 14 

Please note the new start date of September 20 for Discovery Bay courses 

Is your teen having difficulties with school, friends, or are they simply finding becoming a teenager hard? Changes at this time of life and this time of year can be difficult and can lead to stress and anxiety.

Mindfulness is a way of paying attention to things as they happen, to be consciously attentive and present with what is happening.  Being aware of the sun on your skin, the wind in your hair, those little (or big) irritations, or tiredness in your mind and body. With mindfulness you can observe how things are right now, not stressing about the past or worrying about the future.

Mindfulness can improve self-confidence, and can help kids deal with difficult issues through these important, but sometimes challenging years, with family and friends. This group program allows teenagers to explore with kindness and curiosity, learning skills, techniques and practices to help them:

  • feel calmer and happier with themselves and others
  • develop better relationships with others
  • understand the workings of the brain and how it affects emotions and thoughts
  • learn strategies and tools to help cope with stress and anxiety when it arises
  • understand their emotions and how they project in the mind and body

In our age specific programs for children and teens, we teach mindfulness through short meditations and breath work, games and activities, movement (yoga), and stories around the theme of each lesson, as well as home activities for the students and other family members.
