About this listen

Today we go over the "What" and "How" skills of Mindfulness.


The "What" skills are Observe, Describe, and Participate.


The "How" skills are Nonjudgmentally, One-Mindfully, and Effectively.


Homework:

Freshman-Practice observing things in your life without judgment. Notice how often your thoughts include judgment.

JV-Child-Like Mindfulness. Set a timer for one minute and observe your hand as if you're an alien who's never seen a human hand before. Then, set another one minute timer and describe your hand from the same "alien" perspective.

Varsity- Go on a mindful walk! Practice all six skills listed above on the walk.
