Mindfulness for Adolescence Course
There are 6 topics that will each be presented over 2 weeks for the 12 week intervention. Individuals will participate in a one to 1.5 hours, once a week intervention for 12weeks. Mindfulness is the practice of becoming aware of one's present-moment experience with compassion and openness as a basis for wise action. This curriculum is intended to strengthen attention and emotion regulation, cultivate wholesome emotions like gratitude and compassion, expand the repertoire of stress management skills, and help participants integrate mindfulness into daily life. Each lesson includes age-appropriate discussion, activities, and opportunities to practice mindfulness in a group setting.
