Karrot November 6th, 2019

Hello Teens!! Today I have a simple mindfulness exercise for you to try! Let me know how you felt when doing this exercise and if you found it to be helpful.

What can you hear?

What can you smell?

What can you feel?

What can you see?

What can you taste?

Take one minute, concentrate and fill your mind with what is happening right now. All your worries will disapear and you will feel calm and relaxed and in the present moment. That is the goal of this excercise.

I can hear the sound of students writing their tests, moving paper, a vent, footsteps of those turning in the test, and the clicking of calculator buttons.

I can smell the air, but nothing much to notice.

I can feel the back of the chair I'm sitting in, the fuzziness of my fuzzy socks that I wore today, my arm resting on the desk and the phone in my hand.

I can see all the students making small movements at their desks while they write and take their tests or do other work and many of the various things in my calc class.

I can taste some water that I've had to drink today, but not much since lunch was a few hours ago for me.

I think that this exercise really did help me focus and helped me. I did actually just have a moment where I wasnt thinking about everything that is making me so anxious today, and I feel a bit calmer. Thank you so much! 💙
