Teens!! What is Mindfulness, General knowlege

Teens!!!!

I was just thinking to myself today, what topics would you like to learn on mindfulness? I know me as a teen I have learnt a lot on it but I am curious to know what you would like to learn. Let's come up with a list of ideas. Let me start off with a few things about mindfulness to get the brains flowing!!

What is Mindfulness:

When I think of what Mindfulness is I think of it as someone asking something what lets go with cookies, what they taste like, Is so there is a difference of what it is for everyone. Whether it be how they use mindfulness, what they classify it as there are so many ways that you can answer the question what is Mindfulness. Just reading about mindfulness and experiencing it yourself can give you an idea on what it is to you.

Some ways people describe mindfulness as is:

Being in the Present moment

Describing your Surroundings

Seeing Clearly

There are many ways to do mindfulness but for now lets go over a few:

Breathing - Noticing your breathing can be a way that you know what you are doing you are aware of your breathe and how it feels. This one small thing can help to bring you into the present moment.

Meditation - Meditation may sound like a scary word or some people say it is boring but meditation allows us transform the mind, at first it may be hard but it does take a lot of time and practice and alot of people find it very helpful.

Informal Mindfulness - This can be a variety of things such as brushing your teeth, being aware of what is around you, noticing the sounds.

This being said there is mindfulness everywhere you are probably doing it everyday without realizing it.
