.breathe (pronounced dot breathe) is a five-session curriculum developed by the Mindfulness in Schools Project (MISP) for teenagers, ages 13 – 15. .breathe explores ways in which mindfulness might support students through this often challenging period.
In particular, .breathe explores issues around:
- Attention
- Worry
- Sleep
- Relationships
Each .breathe session includes:
- Exploration of the function and structure of key areas of the brain involved in daily experience
- Introductory mindfulness practices
- Animations
- Discussions
- Exercises students can try in their own time
Sessions are designed to last between 40 minutes to one hour, to be delivered once a week for five weeks or once every two weeks.
