Mindfulness And Simon Says Game
![]()
HIya Mindfulness Community-it's me Rumple
Well today I want to play with all my friends here.
We all know how our brains can go all over the place-right? Wow some times I am wiped out by my brain. It's like it never stops-lol We also know how helpful mindfulness skills can help us and our wondering minds. So today I thought we play Simon Says Mindfulness

WOOOHOOOOOO!!
So all you have to do is focus, try and not get distracted. If you do laugh it off and come right back to the game. I promise you I am already wondering
ok everyone ready?
1. Run your hands over your hair. How does your hair feel?
2. Simon says to stretch your arms
3. Simon says to wiggle your fingers
4. Simon says to wiggle your toes

5. Everyone think of how you are feeling right at this moment
6. Simon says stand up and make a funny face
7. Simon says tap your legs and notice how that feels

8. How is the weather by you today?
9. Simon says think of a happy moment. How does that make you feel?
10. Take a deep breath in-hold it now exhale
YAY to all of you for playing this game
So how was this for you?
Did you all "run your hands over your hair and notice how that felt? Simon didn't say to-heehee
Aaawww what about that cute baby kitty? Did your thoughts wonder then oh how soft and cute it was?
Did anyone think of how they were feeling today?
Playing this game gets our mind to focus on only the steps we were to do. To teach our brain to focus while having some fun. I know for me I was doing 2 other things and also on the phone
hahaha. Thing is to have fun while dong mindfulness. Please share your thoughts here with all of us

I did run my fingers over my hair but it doesnt count because I am drying it but then I saw the next sentence started Simon so I realised I was caught out but not again lol.
But OMG at that getting the cat off the table!! or the keyboard, or my book! or the latest lying on top of the flat screen tv O M G!! and me trying to calmly walk up and take her off without it toppling lol
@RumpleSteeleSkin, Love it! I am going to steal this idea, if it's alright with you!
@RumpleSteeleSkin
rumple, this is an "insanely" good idea to get one out of a challenging moment. btw my hair looks really messed up now but i actually started laughing - as i said, it is a good exercise, hahaha and thanks
@RumpleSteeleSkin
I loved this, it was so much fun! And just as I made the funny face and laughed at myself, my mom came in, asking me what I was laughing about. And I don't know, but I liked that I could just answer that I was laughing at myself. Nothing wrong with that, it's actually a good thing to laugh things off every now and then.
Thanks for this, I really enjoyed myself! 
@RumpleSteeleSkin
I did them all and then felt stupid reading the last bit aha
That feeling of making an impact on some is pretty good 😎
@RumpleSteeleSkin
Thank you for sharing this activity!
It was fun while also highlighting the importance of mindfulness.
I found myself wanting to react quickly, but the exercise encouraged me to pause, pay attention, and stay in the moment.
That's something I can always practice more.
