Mindfulness

Mindfulness is the ability to fully be aware in the present moment and engaged in what is happening.  When we are aware of our surroundings, we are not reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us.  When we practice mindfulness, we are able to focus and attend to our emotions as well as feel compassion and empathy.  Mindfulness practices can also help us deal with tough emotions and replace impulsive reactions with thoughtful responses.  I encourage you to spend some time and incorporate mindfulness into your family’s routine.  Below are some guided mindfulness practices you can enjoy as a family.
