Performing Arts and Mindfulness News

'Our approach to mindfulness teaches students to pay attention to what’s happening both around and within themselves, and to notice thoughts, feelings, and sensations as they arise. We teach students how not be judgemental of the thoughts and feelings that they experience, but to be aware of what’s going on and how this makes them feeling.'

Mindfulness from Miss Victoria

 

Dear St Anthony’s Community,

I wanted to share with you all some good news. Each week I will be

posting a mindfulness and meditation session for the week. The

sessions will be made up of the wonderful ABC Mindfulness Tool Kit

videos and a mindfulness meditation led by me for you to enjoy either

individually or as a family. I will post on a Monday (or Tuesday if it’s a

public holiday) on Dojo.

 

You can watch the video each day as part of your daily mindfulness or

just check in a couple of times a week.

We will explore different themes around mindfulness and raising our

awareness of ourselves and our feelings and reactions to the events

around us.

 

I hope you have had lots of opportunities to spend time together playing

a game, going for walks, reading a book together, cooking or even

keeping a diary of this historic time!

 

If you are keen to pursue more mindfulness in your family, Smiling Mind

have a special program - “Thrive Inside” is a special initiative to help

you stay calm and healthy in the physical constraints of your home,

while remaining calm and healthy inside your mind during the Covid –

19 pandemic. It’s a great program and it’s free and easy to download

on your phone or device.
