An exclusive session for the students of Grade IX was organised by the Counselling Department on the topic 'Mindfulness' on 5 April 2023 with the endeavour to empower the students with the need and method of practising mindfulness regularly. The session was conducted by the School Counsellor.
The group comprising students was welcomed with soothing music and started with an activity in which the participants had to exhibit awareness of their immediate surroundings. The Counsellor explained that being aware and invested in the present can help sever our association with the negative thoughts related to the past and anxious expectations of the future, thus accentuating our experience of life.
5 fun techniques were demonstrated and discussed which the students namely Belly Breathing, Grounding, Wow Moment, Art of Selective Watering and Practicing Gratitude. Lastly, students used stickies to create a Gratitude Wall which consisted of all the big and small things in their life they’re grateful for.
All these activities on mindfulness allowed the students a practical approach to practising mindfulness in their day-to-day life.
