Abstract

Scientists are actively studying mindfulness and the positive impacts it can have on our brains.  In the book, Masters of Mindfulness, the fifth grade students in Mr. Musumeci’s class, who are the authors of the book, describe mindfulness as “a precious thing.”  Join this interactive session as we explore the data driven uses of mindfulness in your School Counseling program.  

Description

Join the Ivy Creek Elementary Counselors as we share fun, innovative ideas to engage students in mindfulness. Students in Kindergarten- Third grade report mindfulness helping them fall asleep easier, handle peer/sibling conflict better and have overall increased calm in their lives.  Various resorces such as, GoNoodle to Masters of Mindfulness will be highlighted.  Participants will leave with a clear understanding of mindfulness, a list of resources to use immediately within their counseling program and outcome data to share with stakeholders.  Come see what Mindfulness is all about and leave feeling.... well, more mindful. :)
