Mindfulness Play Workshops
These workshops are the perfect way to give your child a gentle introduction to mindfulness. With playfulness and creativity at heart, each workshop offers a fun theme to explore as well as plenty of ways to begin to understand the basic foundations of mindfulness. Through a range of activities, children will learn how to focus on body and breath in real time, as well as noticing and focusing on thoughts, emotions, physical sensations and actions.
With or without their parent joining in, the children can try out meditations and explore how to live with more confidence, kindness and a greater understanding of themselves and the world around them.
These workshops are taught by a fully trained and experienced teacher local to Torbay, Abigail Yardimci.
