As part of belief and values and also linked to Children’s Mental Health week, we discussed the meaning of inner peace. We explored how acts of meditation, yoga, Thai chi, prayer or simple thought and relaxation were ways to find our own inner peace. In class, we listed to a meditation video which encouraged us to breathe and let go of all our worries and just be in the present. It was so good to see so many children involving themselves in the process and really having a go at letting our worries and stresses go after a long week. We then did some mindful colouring to end the session. These strategies can be used at home or in a situation where we find ourselves upset, angry or stressed.
