If we spend all our waking hours glued to our phones, social media and devices we may miss the beauty right in front of us.
Mindfulness helps develop our understanding of how our brain works, increases our concentration, our sense of calm and our compassion for ourselves and others. As a result, developing our practice makes us happier, healthier, and more skilful at responding to difficult emotions; overall, it increases our focus and enhances our performance. WE FEEL CONNECTED!
This book shares with you seven mindfulness techniques that, with daily practice, will have a profound positive effect on your well-being and the young people in your care. The guidance is to practise each one of the techniques for a week over a period of six weeks and record what you notice.
To maximise the benefits, at the end of the six weeks, make a plan of how you are going to integrate all the practices into your daily life, using the example at the back of the book as your guide.
This script in the first instance is geared towards children at the top end of primary school (9-11 years of age), with the support of their parents/carers/teachers. The intention of this script is to improve the health and well-being of people of all ages, by equipping them with the well-being tools to live a healthier and happier life.

Praise:
Mindfulness for your child is a huge gift that in later life they will thank you for and pass onto their children. All that Bernie speaks of has evidence through modern scientific, medical research and clinical studies. With Bernie's experience as a School Teacher and now a Mindfulness Teacher you couldn't find a better book to deliver these life skills.
-- Teresa Wort, Qualified Mindfulness and Compassion Teacher
Love the book and the whole concept of it being used with primary age children as part of their PSHE curriculum.
A wonderful and beautifully illustrated introduction to mindfulness for children that will support and encourage lifelong well being habits to help them cope with the pressures they will encounter in today's world.
A must have for education leaders.
-- Karen Naik, Co-ordinator for Headteachers' Wellbeing Catholic Diocese of Leeds
