Mindful Thursday

Primary 6 love their mindful sessions with Noeleen on a Thursday morning. Today we learnt all about the Amygdala part of our brain. This is the part of our brain which helps us to deal with danger - it gives us our fight or flight response. We found out that the amygdala doesn't think, it just reacts to help us survive.

We also continued with our mindfulness practice - learning a new technique using our hands as petals, opening the petals as we breath out and closing them as we breath in.

We need to remember to be kind to ourselves.
