Special for Teachers: Mindfulness with Kids

These days, when everything is so fast-paced, we all need to stop and look inside and around us. Children born into an almost digital life often quickly forget to do this. This workshop offers tools to remind this both to the participants themselves and their inner child, as well as to the children in their classroom. During the workshop, mindfulness practices, some as short as 30 seconds and some longer, that can be applied to children of different age groups are also discussed. The practices include mindfulness practices embedded in breathing, art, and play.

Instructor: Suzi Amado
Capacity: 20 people
Duration: 90 minutes

The event is free of charge; reservation is required.
The event will take place at the Pera Museum.
