Able takes you through body scan meditation. Kids love this and so do parents and educators.
In Mindfulness for kids, Shamash Alidina describes the body scan as a way to get in touch with the body, let go of feelings of needing to get stuff done, and release pent-up emotions. Just like other forms of meditation, the body scan also trains attention.
Sesame Street and Headspace partner up to help young children deal with big emotions that happen in life. Emotions include frustration with the Two-Headed Monster, disappointment with Elmo, and being nervous with Rosita.
