Why Mindfulness?
Mindfulness is like a little mini vacation for your brain. It gives your thoughts a chance to rest, so you can let new ones in for more learning later. It also gives you more space in your brain so you can help figure out your emotions and feel calm.
1. Mindfulness helps us learn to recognize how we are feeling, and not react to it.
2. Which means it can help us calm down more quickly, or stay calm during tricky times.
3. It also gives our mind a little 'break" when it is full of stuff, and can help us relax.
4. This mind break then gives our brains a little more "space" so that we can fill it up with things that are important.
5. Mindfulness is not emptying your mind of all thoughts, it's more like letting go of the ones we don't need.
