It's easy to breeze through life without fully appreciating all that it has to offer. Many of us are not living our best lives because we are consumed by the past and the future. We can go through life on autopilot, in a nearly mechanical state, functioning without really thinking. When we dwell in the past, it can be depressing, and when we are fixated on the future, it can sometimes cause anxiety. The present is the only time we can live in, and it is sacred, so why miss it? If we spend all our waking hours glued to our phones, social media, and devices, we may miss the beauty right in front of us. Mindfulness helps us develop a deeper understanding of how our brain works, increases our concentration, our sense of calm, and our compassion for ourselves and others. As a result, developing our practice makes us happier, healthier, and more skilled at responding to difficult emotions; overall, it increases our focus and enhances our performance. We feel connected! This book shares with you seven mindfulness techniques that, with daily practice, will have a profound positive effect on your well-being and the young people in your care. The guidance is to practice each one of the techniques for a week over a period of six weeks and record what you notice. To maximize the benefits, at the end of the six weeks, make a plan of how you are going to integrate all the practices into your daily life, using the example at the back of the book as your guide.
