Mindful Movement:
Hedgehog rock and roll: - hedgehog pose helps to build core strength and wakes up the postural muscles along the spine.
Lie on your back
Hug your knees into your chest
Rock from side to side
Then rock forwards and back, see if you can rock all the way up to sitting without using your hands
Mindfulness of Thoughts
Let go of worrying or difficult thoughts by blowing worry bubbles.
Using either a bottle of bubbles and wand or your imagination
Breathe in and gather all your worrying thoughts
Breathe out your worrying thoughts into a bubble and watch them float away
Or, you could clap your hands together and burst your worry bubble, and poof, your worries have disappeared!!
Mindful Breathing
Rainbow Breaths - moving the body in synchronicity with the breath is calming and grounding.
Sit or stand with your arms by your sides
Breathe in and lift arms out and up
Breathe out and let arms relax out and back down to your sides
With each breath imagine you are drawing each colour of the rainbow
