Dear Parents/ Guardians,
.b (Stop, breathe, be Mindfulness 8 week course)
This exciting program is now open for the second time this year for our MS students. We have places for 12 students only. The training is led by Mrs. Greenwood (grade 7 counselor), a trained Mindfulness teacher. The Mindfulness in Schools Project (UK) has designed this 8-week program, which has been successfully evaluated by Professor Felicia Huppert of Cambridge University and Professor Katherine Weare, Exeter University. Mindfulness is now highly regarded as a life skill that can be taught to young people and adults to improve wellbeing and enable people to flourish. Please see attached the information about the .b program.
If you would like your child improve their attention/concentration, feel happier, calmer, more relaxed, improve their relationship with others, and help them feel more confident in situations that make them feel anxious like tests or sport or music performances, this program is ideal for your child. There is no cost for this program.
The program will be held on Thursdays and starts on the 27 March 2013 from 2:15 until 3:15pm and takes place in the MS Office. Students need to know this is an 8-week commitment, and students gain most when they make a full commitment to the program. The dates of the training are as follows:
- Thursday, April 3
- Thursday, April 10
- Thursday, April 24
- Thursday, May 1
- Thursday, May 8
- Thursday, May 15
- Thursday, May 29

Please email Mrs. Greenwood at jackieg@isb.ac.th to reserve a place for your child.
