Mindfulness also improves attention, emotional regulation, increases empathy and perspective taking, better engagement in activities, and reduces feelings of stress and anxiety. "Studies find that youth benefit from learning mindfulness in terms of improved cognitive outcomes, social-emotional skills, and well being." We need materials so that we can make Voss sensory bottles for calming purposes. We will meditate with a salt lamp and aroma diffuser to add a visual and olfactory focus.Students will use sensory bottles to help them calm down whenever they are struggling. We will create a peaceful meditating environment with the salt lamp and an essential oil diffused through the air. Upon completion of our meditation, we will do the activities outlined the the book "The Compassionate Classroom" to help students in every environment they may encounter.
