My students need pedometers, headphones and cameras so that we can practice mindfulness while getting exercise through walking with our eyes wide open! The pedometers are also MP3 players, so listening to music will contribute greatly to my teenager’s enthusiasm for movement while enjoying the outdoors. Wearing a pedometer or fitness tracker and recording daily steps and distance will also be a motivating tool. Our school’s schedule has long, double class periods so quick mindful breaks for exercise and relaxation is crucial. Students who just need a quick relaxation break will also be able to participate in the “Rainbow Walk” using the camcorders/cameras. This is a mindfulness practice designed to move the body, rest the mind and to take pictures, then share what they experienced with the entire class.
