MINDFULNESS for children – Susan Kaiser Greenland video
In teaching children mindfulness Susan Kaiser Greenland means by ABC – Attention, Balance and Compassion.
Mindfulness is taught via the Inner Kids program that teaches children eight strategies or life skills.
The first three strategies develop;
Attention (Stopping, Quieting, Focusing), the next two develop;
Balance (Choosing, Seeing) and the last three develop
Compassion (Reframing, Caring and Connecting).
Founder of the Inner Kids program, Susan Kaiser Greenland adapted adult meditation practices for kids, seeing a marked improvement in their capacity to focus, calm themselves, and manage stress. She is also the author of The Mindful Child.
Susan shares her insights on how children can learn practical skills to live more balanced, joyful lives. Her approach for teaching mindfulness to kids involves research-based techniques and playful activities.
Now I write, teach and coach mainly about 21stC 'interfaith as inter-spirituality' - and how we can grow closer to our True Self.
.
As anyone who knows anything about IPF will realize my energy is curtailed - so I am concentrating primarily on 'inter-spirituality'.
.
In the past I would have said that:
.
1) I run courses and give talks at conferences and in universities and colleges in the UK, China, USA, Canada, Scandinavia etc.
.
2) I provide materials, outlines and lessons for Schools.
.
3) My range of interests include personal development, learning and teaching, photography and film, the arts generally, spirituality and educational practice and theory.
.
4) At the same time I continue developing the human-centred studies SunWALK PDS (People Development System) - a whole-person, high-achievement model for individuals, and for use in, NGOs, schools and other organizations.
.
5) The key question that continues to animate me and my work remains, "What is it to be fully and positively human?"
