Hello Teens!!!

The next time that you are feeling stressed out, overwhelmed. or unsure, reach out for a moment of calm awareness: a minfulness SNACK as an acronym. Here is how to do it:

S - Stop - Just stop whatever you are doing (stopping by definition, requires us to begin again. We can always begin again)

N - Notice - What is happening within and around you?

A - Accept - This is a tricky one. Whatever it is your're struggling with (time, school, family, sleepiness etc) acknowledge it for what it is, without judgement.

C - Curious - Ground yourself with questions about your experience and environment: What am I feeling? What do I need right now?

K - Kindness - Respond to yourself and others (mistakes and all) with all kindness and observe how that helps things get back on track.

Try this excercise and lets see how it can help out and let us know! Oldies you can participate too <3

Wow KarrotTop this blew my top reading it! Thank you so much for this Mindfulness S.N.A.C.Ksmiley I sometimes neglect myself on this useful S.N.A.C.K I do this more when I am worn out instead of doing it regularly. But this is a great reminder I will have myself do.

thank you Karrotheart

S - Stop - Just stop whatever you are, dont think just stop. Even if you are in the middle of the road

N - Notice - all the angry people shouting at you to move, the column of cars and that guy thats comming at you with a baseball bat

A - Accept - This is a tricky one. Accept that you're about to spend the next few weeks in a hospital... Maybe..

C - Curious - Ground yourself with questions about your experience and environment: Why am i even reading this ? Am i this bored and boring to have to read this comment for entertainment ? Why am i even here when people worse off than me are spending their time taking small steps towards amazing lives, despite having it worse than me ?

K - Kindness - Kindly respond to the people screaming at you and flipping the bird in kind. Kindness is what makes the world go around and round
