Great for kids and adults, this meditation helps you visualize events, whether positive or negative, floating down a river on a leaf.
Made for small children but with a theme everyone could be mindful of! Help yourself think of your emotions as different fish in a pond, instead of being one of the fish (angry, sad, other emotion) learn how to "be the pond," and watch as your different feelings swim around and away.
Journaling is a free and easy method for reducing stress. Write about nothing at all or a list of items you want to get done, a brain dump of everything on your mind, or your feelings about a certain event. Your journal doesn't have to be anything fancy, write on a receipt, a takeout bag, or even just a scrap piece of paper! This online journal is free to use so get started with your mindfulness journey with journaling!
