Mindfulness @ Mepham

New flyers in Mepham's Library with QR Codes that take you to mindfulness videos.
mind·ful·ness
/ˈmīn(d)f(ə)lnəs/
noun
  1. 1.
    the quality or state of being conscious or aware of something.
    "their mindfulness of the wider cinematic tradition"
  2. 2.
    a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique.

Many teachers in our building have introduced meditation into the classroom as a means of improving students’ attention and reducing stress. Today, we displayed these reminders in the library. Just scan the QR codes to take you to a quick video of mindfulness meditation. We supply earbuds upon request. 

Thanks to Margaux DelGuidice‏ (@metadatachick) and Jennifer Bleicher (@BleicherJen) for the idea!
