I am a middle school counselor in Washington Heights, who services 395 students. Many of my days consist of dealing with behavior management needs in and out of the classroom. I would like to teach the students Mindfulness (Mindfulness is a particular way of paying attention. It is the mental faculty of purposefully bringing awareness to one experience. Mindfulness can be applied to sensory experience, thoughts, and emotions by using sustained attention and noticing our experience without reacting.) The application of mindfulness by students and educators has the potential to improve academic achievement, mental health, and inter- and intra-personal relationships. I would like to work with a class of twenty five sixth grade students.
