P7C Paws b Mindful Week 1

4th Nov 2021

Primary 7 were delighted today to have Sheena McGrellis from Aware NI's Paws b Mindful. 

Sheena taught us wonderful lessons all about our amazing brains and making choices.

We explored how mindfulness can help us train our minds to change our brain. Sheena helped us realise that our brain is in our heads but our mind can be/go anywhere.

We were introduced to different parts of the brain especially the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus. Also we were lucky to take part in some helpful breathing exercises to help us focus more in class. 

We are looking forward to more visits in the upcoming weeks. 😊
