Free presentation for families with young children on mindfulness practices and activities.

Illinois STAR NET is hosting a “Mindful Me” Family Super Saturday Webinar at 10 a.m. April 24.

The presentation is for families with young children.

The webinar will discuss mindfulness practices and activities for parents and kids.

Children reflect the nervous systems of adults around them, including parents, caregivers, teachers and others.

To create mindful environments and mindful interactions, we must first focus on our own experiences.

Mindfulness means maintaining a moment-by-moment awareness of our thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations and surrounding environment with openness and curiosity. It has a variety of research-backed impacts, including:

  • Reduction in stress
  • Emotional regulation
  • Enhanced parent-child interactions
  • Increased focus

In this session, the presenters will explore techniques, practices and activities to implement mindfulness for yourself and your children.
