What’s it all about?

Participate in a class designed for young children and watch in amazement as it allows you to access the inner child within!

Be captivated by puppets with names like Breathing Bobby, Sensory Sally and Emotional Eric and learn about the world of mindfulness in simple, relatable language that will stick with you long after the class. Throw off the cloak of adulthood – sit on the floor, put your hand up, act like a lion, practise mindful eating, breathing and listening and dance to your emotions with wild abandon. Consolidate your learning at the end of the class by making your own mindful sock puppets and enjoying some good old crafting.

Emerge lighter with a fresh perspective, start using your new mindfulness techniques and before you know it you’ll be tapping into your own playful inner monkey – no workshop required!

What will we cover?

In this class we will learn techniques for:

  • Mindful Breathing
  • Mindful Eating
  • Feeling Emotions in your Body
  • Mindful Sight
  • Mindful Dance
  • And making our own mindful monkey sock puppets – with the aid of puppets, a monkey suit and lashings of imagination.

Who will be teaching?

The Mindful Monkey is a primary teacher whose passion for mindfulness prompted her to don a monkey suit and The Mindful Monkey become the ‘Mindful Monkey.’ When not swinging on trees or eating bananas she can be found running Mindfulness incursions for Prep/1/2 students in primary schools.
