Lesson 3: Focused Awareness is the third video in a virtual series of MindUP programming for the 2020-2021 academic year. Based in neuroscience, MindUP teaches the skills and knowledge children need to manage stress, regulate emotions and face challenges with optimism, resilience and compassion.
We all have moments when we feel flustered. When this happens, it is important we pause, listen, and really focus in on our breathing. For children, it can be useful when they need help settling down to work or when they are shifting their attention between tasks. In this lesson, students will practice mindful listening and mindful breathing. These exercises will help their mind and body relax and improve their focus.
